Anybody know where to get skid plate arch supports for the ZForce Gen2? The frame underneath the middle of the G2 (in my case 950 sport) is arched upward so a flat aftermarket skid plate has no support directly under the middle of the machine.  Team MSC sells a skid plate with the arch supports but i have the CFMoto aftermarket skid plate that doesn't have arch supports and i think it really should have them.

Anybody else notice the grease zerks (grease fittings) are on the wrong side on the front lower forward A-arm bushings on the 950 Sport G2?  Why would they be on the bottom where they could get broken off or covered by a skid plate?  I checked an 800 Trail and they're on the correct side (on top), so why not the 950 Sport?  My dealer showed me the parts diagram and it shows on the bottom which is crazy (however, the front lower rear A-arm bushing zerk is on the top).  I can't grease them without taking off my aftermarket OEM CFMoto skid plate, which I really don't want to do every ride or two!

I was thinking of drilling/tapping into the A-arm on the correct side where I can get to them and installing new zerks since CFMoto won't fix them.  Is that pretty easy to do and has anyone done it?  Thanks!

I called my dealer in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada and he doesn't have any bulletins yet, and the part number for the 950 Sport doesn't show up in his system yet.  Hopefully they put it in Canada too.

Beware of sharp wheels!  They will cut your straps.  I bought my 950 Sport G2 last year, and strapped through the wheels on a small flat deck.  I drove about 150km on the highway at 120 km/h and when I checked, both straps gone!  The wheels cut the straps, and thank god I had played with the park setting on the transmission (it doesn't go in fully unless you jam and wiggle it all the way forward while rocking the machine forward and back a bit), otherwise I would have had a brand new machine all over the highway.

If that parking brake offer from another post is true that is great!
