Engine guard/crash bar
Getting ready to put a new rider on a sportster 883 low. Thinking about installing a crash bar in case it goes down. Is it worth it? Im not sure exactly how much would be saved with it on the bike.

Im not running a crash guard now but a highway bar spared my *** from getting any road rash when I low sided a CB750 that I rode in the 70's. Probably a great investment for a new rider as a dropped bike can get very expensive

Definitely yes. Odds are they will drop it in a parking lot or your driveway. It will save you some money in the long run.
