With the bumpers. They set them apart.

I like them. Some day they may save me from expensive repairs. I'd rather have them and not need them, than not have them and need them.

I put a rear bumper on my FLHRCI since I pull a trailer. Should i ever be half asleep hooking up the trailer and miss the ball it will hopefully take the hit and it fills the gap between the hitch and fender.

I like all the big, bulky accoutrements on my 2006 Ultra. I actually think that those plain fenders on the Super Glides and such need some accentuation. But thank God this is America and you can have it your way.

No bumpers or guards, less is more. Just my two cents.

Got the bumper but the rubber buffer is removed. Used fender tips on front and rear as prefer the look

I like that look on the back, can you post one of the front? Thanks.

I like the clean looks too. It sure makes cleaning the bike a breeze.

I got rid of the front bumper completely on my 09 Classic.Now i'm waiting for the MOCO to come out with a chrome filler piece for the rear bumper,then I'll remove the rubber piece on the rear.They used to have this filler piece for the pre-09 bikes.
