I am planning on buying an armadillo super lite bumper from Rocky Mountain. Its the one with the 3 bars running horizontally in front for $114. Does anybody on here have a bumper like that on their bike. Post a pic so I can see what it looks like and decide if I want to order it.

That's on my shopping list too! My local dealer here in Scotland sells them and I take it off the wall every time I'm in his shop. Can't believe how light it is .... about 2 lbs I think. He's got one fitted on his YFZ450 for MX, but he covers it with his race numbers! :shootself:

 

Only thing is, he wants

i made my own bumper it looks killer :dance: , and i'd post a pic but i cant get it to work right. lol who cares if its only 10 pds...thats like nothing.. my bumper is made of 1/4 square tubing. the frame would break before the bumper would bend lol

yeah i wish they would show their products on the quads so you can see what they actually would look like. i thought the xc (3 bar) would look better on the craptor than a shee, and i was leaning toward the xcl. i'm undecided also till i see one on a shee. :confused:

is it just the view, or does that thing seem to hang pretty low? :confused: i think i'm liking the xcl more and more, after some of these pics. still would like to see it on one though. i haven't found any pics of that one yet.

i would never pay more than about 60 or 70 bucks for a bumper especially if i was gonna trail ride. its bound to get fucked up. i paid like 65 bucks a piece for my ac ones and thats still a little steep.

I've had the Armadillo Custom Lite bumper for about 2 years now. To be honest...I shouldn't have bought it. I'm not sure how much they are now. but it was $115.00 then. Let's just say there's not too much of a "bumper" with whole 2 lbs of aluminum. I haven't actually ran into anything with it...but you couldn't tell by looking at it. I've got a dent the size of a quarter on the bottom bar that I have no idea what from? :confused: And I came up short on a double-double and smashed the botttom bar into the frame. I loved the bumper when I first got it...but I don't recommend it for trails or MX. It would definately be a nice sand bumper, but I'd somehow look for a chrome one ..these things are hard as hell to keep polished. My next bumper will be the Tag bumper w/the mudscreen for sure.
