Default HD Nostalgic Engine Guard

Is anyone running the Nostalgic engine guard that HD sells? I'd be interested is seeing some side-view pictures of the guard installed on your bikes if anyone has them. Thanks.

Thanks for all of the pictures...a lot of nice looking bikes. I think I am going to go ahead and order the engine guard. One last question. Does the engine guard reduce the ground clearance of the bike at all. From the pictures it looks like it is at least as high as the bottom frame rails.

Yep... you're correct. Guard is higher than the frame rails. The bottom of the floorboards are the only things that scrape when I lean too much.
