I have a 95 FXD and am geting noisy vibration at low revs from the debis deflector. Any other had same problem. Just wondering if removed is it a problem for the belt.
Look forward to any comments

Hey Vinny,
I'm not sure what the debris deflector is. What we in the USA call a fender? You mention the belt. Do you mean the belt guard? If so, upper or lower?

I don't think I have any such vibrations but I'll listenlfeel for them tomorrow.

Regards,

 

you may call it the lower belt guard shown in black on yours. Im sure it serves a purpose I just wonder how much it will be missed if removed.
Cheers
Vinny

 

took mine off...mainly because it was the only plastic piece on the bike....and i never liked the look of it
havent noticed anything different from it being gone...other than the look, and in my opinion...it looks much better without it

 

Thanks metal Mike I think I will take it off. I will also eliminate annoying vibration
Cheers

one thing bout takin it off rember your more likely to pick up rocks etc between the belt and pullys

 

how about replacing it with a chrome piece?

 

H-D calls it a debris deflecter.

 

Can't spell this A.M.

 

If you get the HD one itactually gets installed over the existing one.
