go to a machine shop and get some of that real tough 3/16" plastic, and make your own..... use a heat gun to give it some curves around the side cases and it adds crazy strength too, i also left a "flap" to protect the linkage
strong
light
cheap
quiet
did i mention there indestructible?
the 450 will have less power and will be harder to start, and will be heavier, but to make up for it it will require more maintenance.

Maybe for letting it sit for 12 weeks, GTS could throw one in for free?
