Default Heel Guard

Got tired of cleaning rubber marks off of my exhaust (right side). Purchased a heel guard "turn down" for the right side of my 07 UC from Eastern Performance. It is amazing how many times, my heel touches the guard.

Highly recommend one.. No more rubber marks on the exhaust!

Manufactured by: Heel Guard, Inc.

Looks GREAT! I am not capable of designing and or bending tubing, therefore fork out the monies.

Very good idea. I think I have something else to do this winter. LOL I have a rk custom, with the streamliner boards. I have seen a couple heel guards, but nothing I am in love with. Maybe I can figure out a way to make me some. Thanks for the suggestion.
