Cool Engine guards for extended forward control Night Train

Does anyone know where I could find/have made engine guards (black) for my 07 night train that I've extended the forward control 3" (arlen ness kit)?
Thanks.
Scott

I have the HD although it states it will not work with the extended fwd controls I have had no issues with the Arlen Ness 3"

49200-07A
Fits '00-later FXST, FXSTB, FXSTC, FXSTD, FXSTS, FXSTSSE 1/2, FXCW/C models (except models equipped with Extended Reach Forward Control Kit P/N 49171-04, 49223-04, 49171-08 or 49223-08).


49023-02A would be the gloss black version

Buddha4,

I have a 2005 Night Train with the Arlen Ness extended forward controls and I installed the Harley gloss back engine guard. Because it is mounted further forward, it makes it so that the hole at the top does not line up with the mounting hole on the front of the frame. I just installed a small (maybe 2") piece of steel that had two holes drilled in it, and it seems plenty sturdy enough. I could try to take some pics if anyone is interested - you have to look pretty close to even notice it is attached differently since the piece is behind the tab at the top of the engine guard. I would guess the same thing would work on new model years as well.

Engine guards on a Train? Doesn't sound like my style, but I'd like to see some pics of an installation...
