Anyone running a crash bar or engine guard on their Dyna ? Saw some Japanese Fxr/Fxd videos on You Tube and they don't look out of place at all. Plus there's also the protection if the bike falls over, please share your pics...b.
I have one. Looks ok. I like the protection. Accidently lay mine over in a freak incident in the garage and it went down slow and just scuffed the bar up a smidge. Better thrn scratching anything else!
I've always installed one on my Harleys. I currently have a black Harley Mustache Engine Guard-49000078 installed on my FXDF. I think it compliments the lines of the bike.
I don't like the appearance of the crash bars on my stripped-down bikes, but without one, these bikes go down flat as a pancake, often even denting the fuel tank.
And if you slide the bike down the road without a crash bar, you may end up with your trapped foot or leg doing the sliding, with the weight of the bike on top of it. I've done this, and it doesn't make for a happy day.
