Default Crash guard for FXD w/ forward controls
Looking for options for a crash guard that will work now that I have installed forward controls on my FXD (had to take the old one off to accomodate the forwards). Any suggestions?

Yes. Don't crash.

Crash guards do nothing but ugly up your bike. Hey, you asked.

I got the Lindby Custom bar with forwards and they fit and look great. You can order in black also if wanted.

I have HD forwards and HD engine guard.

Both fit fine and no cornering issues.
