I installed this product yesterday on my FJ-09 and I’m very impressed! I had already modified the oil drain plug to reduce it’s vulnerability, but this skid plate should prevent common road hazards from knocking a hole in the oil pan.

Not sure why my previous review froze up. Good bang for the buck. Some complaints on line that the skid plate would have to be removed to remove drain plug on the FJ-09. That was an easy remedy. The drain plug is at the back end on the ’15 FJ-09 and all I had to do was to cut a slot about 2″ deep and 1 1/2″ wide creating easy access and minimal invasion in the bed of the plate. However, once you add blue locktite to the screws, they may be difficult to remove.

While there is assuredly a special place in Hades for the people who write SW-MOTECH’s instructions, their products are excellent on the whole. This is a sturdy piece of equipment that (once I deciphered the instructions) wasn’t difficult to install.The main plate is removable for oil changes, making that process easier than it might otherwise be. SW-MOTECH prices are always on the steep side, but at least the quality doesn’t make me regret paying them.

Good quality, but doesn’t fit with Akropovic exhaust. You CAN modify it to fit… Bend down front to clear headers, cut half of right plate mount off and grind right rear tip. You either have to modify a drain plug hole for oil changes or remove the plate – ( 2015 model year has the drain plug at the bottom of the pan… They changed that in 2016)

My fj-09 was very vulnerable underneath and I just feel a little better with some protection. I do have to take it off for oil changes, but it’s 6 little hex screws, so easy.

Fits well. Looks good. Just don’t over-tightened the hex head screws which are very soft aluminium. You must trust the thread lock.

Even though this is for the XSR900, I had read that it would fit on my FJ 09. I liked it better than the SW-Motech unit for my bike. The instructions are great, the fit is perfect, and it’s easy to install. While I do not think it will withstand a large impact, it does protect the vulnerable oil drain plug. It should come with an oil drain hole. I will add one at my next oil change.

Bought for an FJ09 but not listed for the FJ09,just theXSR 900, The part fits the FJ,not super robust but more protection for the exposed sump.
