RE: Mustache Engine Guard

I have one on my SERK, which is standard equipment. I am 5'5" tall and cannot reach it, you should be fine!

RE: Mustache Engine Guard

I've got one on my fatboy (i'm 5'10") and I cannot rest on it comfortably. My right leg gets caught on the air filter cover. It looks great
but at my height dosn't make much of a foot rest. Sorry to bring bad news.

Im 5' 11" and its great for me, I added pegs with heel rest's, it gives you 2 locations to hang your feet on long rides.

This is what I have done and am very happy with the outcome and utility. The rubber foot pads that came built-in with my guard are for looks only. My legs aren't bo-legged enough to get around the fuel tank to reach the built-in flat spots on mustache.

Mine was a different part number for the Fatboy (I think), has slightly different look (more like Kuryakyn's).
