I removed the engine guard off my Fatboy after getting the Hi-Lo Air Ride System. My sig has my bike with the guard on. Any opnions on whether I should put it back on or not? Thanks

I'd leave it off.&nbsp\\; The only reason I keep them on my bike is to stretch my feet on long rides.&nbsp\\; Otherwise, I probably would not have them on mine either.

I couldn't do without my highway pegs that are mounted on my Linby bar.&nbsp\\; Have consided though the&nbsp\\;Kuraykyn Cruise arm mark III's which mount to floorboards then I could do away with engine guard.

Main reason I have my guard is for my highway pegs.&nbsp\\; Couldn't live without them.

I replaced my engine guard with Mark IIIs. I really like the way it makes the front end open now.&nbsp\\;

I keep my engine guard on the wall in my bedroom.&nbsp\\; Once I took it off it never went back on. &nbsp\\;
