Sorry, just seeing this now. Yes, that is the factory lower cowling. It is not a "skid Plate" in that there is actually nothing on the bottom nor is it substantial enough to function as one. It is great at keeping the oil filter protected from anything being flung off the front tire or the road. Probably should come with the bike to begin with. I'd buy it again, it does offer a measure of protection even though it is not a true skid plate by any stretch, hope this is helpful.
