Default anys 48s with engine guards
Anyone with a 48 have engine guards on it. Not sure how they would look on the bike but curious to see. Also if any knows of any websites that sell custom engine guards.

I think any engine guard goes well with a fat front tire.

^^^ that is just a sweet looking bike. I'm totally drawn to the 48s myself. Not sure why, but I think it's the bigger tire, or the tank shape
