Default Fat Bobs with Engine Guards?

Anybody got photos of Fat Bobs outfitted with Engine Guards?

If so, please show them here.

Also, please provide any available details about the guard. Manufacturer, price, appearance, quality/opinion, etc.

Thanks.

i think you can use the customizer at the HD website to fit them on to get a look.

I put on the Lindby's at Daytona. I'll try to take a pic tomorrow. I have the one for the Fat Bob with forward controls (actually the Wide Glide but it's the same part). The right side is a little close to the brake pedal, especially with boots on. May have to find a smaller pedal eventually. Not sure if I like it though. Only riding more will tell.

Those are the MoCo accessory bars. They add quite a lot of chrome to the bike and don't look too bad although the U-bolt fitting on the bottom looks cheap.

The bike looks better without them but they possibly look better on the Fat Bob because they make the bike look fatter and they probably match a fat front tyre better than a skinny one. I always fit bars if I can. I've dropped a couple of bikes over the years and they've saved me an awful lot of money.

They do beef up the bike a bit more. I like the look, more or less, with saddlebags.
