Well, when I bought my FE650 today, I also got a "White Brothers" aluminum skidplate. I thought it was made by Berg (I think Berg owns them?), but it doesn't fit worth a damn and will take quite a bit of fabricating to make it right....which you really shouldn't ever have to do on a new part. The part number was listed as 31-930X. Does anybody know whose skidplate is the actually best or is this the only POS available out there??? 8O 8O 8O

Thanks guys for all the skid plate leads! I ended up with Splat's suggestion at Utah Sports Cycle. It fit right on with no missing coverage on the bottom frame sections and has a drain hole and a drain channel for both oil plugs. It even has an "H" cut into the front! 
The official Husaberg plate leaves a lot of frame unprotected towards the rear of the engine cases and did not bolt up well at all (requires some fabbing). I did like the Husaberg's aluminum clamp mounts better than the steel clamps, but if you gotta fab it to fit, then it's not worth the effort in my opinion.
