Default installing engine guards-question
I want to put an engine guard on my 07 FXDL and was looking at the ones in the HD parts catalog. Is this a relatively easy thing to do yourself or should I bring it in to the dealer and have them do it?

One of the easiest extras you can add and money well spent.
