I just got my 2018 Commencal Meta v4.2 Power 650B last month and already ripped go my motor guard. I called Commencal and they said that the new motor guards are on back order. So I decided to just make my own. I used aluminum 1/8 thick x 3 inches wide and 19.5 inches long. I posted a pattern that needs to be printed on legal paper for the right size.

Started beefing up my 2018 motor protector with some cheap Chinese carbon and epoxy on sale for $2 a pop.
How is the home brew skid plate working out? Hard to stomach $70 for a couple pieces of plastic.

It is working out perfect. I’ve hit a lot of rocks and it is done it’s job.
Did you use proper tools to make it or just a vise? Think I’m going to give it a try.

My buddy had a metal bender. You might be able to do it in a vise.
Took a try making one with half assed shit tools. We will see if it works. Not as tigh to the frame as I’d like. Might make another version.

Looks good. Did you add an extra piece in the middle?
Yes. I dint like how the left side of the motor hung out on it’s own so far. I used 2.5” bar for the main part and a short piece of 4” for the deflector. I tried a JB weld as a poor mans bond for the pieces it didn’t hold. I’ll have to find someone who can run a bead on both sides.

did you finished it ?

I finished it, but aesthetically it didn't look that great, so I kept it aside in case I broke the original one, which never happened. It's been 3 years of hard riding and it's still in one piece and looking a lot better than my cranks
I got one from Amygos. Works great:
