Default Engine protectors that go behind the rider
Has anyone installed the engine protectors that go BEHIND the rider? Anyone have thoughts and pics? Hope I'm using the correct terminology.

Do you mean 'rear crash bars'? That's the only thing I can wrap my brain around on a Saturday.

I have saddlebag guards on my Heritage. Looks a bit odd without the bags on there.

But with the bags they are alright. We have helmet locks installed on the top of them on each side. They've come in handy a few times.

Mary even uses the saddlebag guards for an alternative foot rest sometimes.
