It if snaps my bike is screwedIf it is only because the holes are to small why not just drill them out to the correct size? Does everything else line up ?

- April 19, 2016, 16:18:46 PMHeres the update on the Engine Guard I bought off ebay a couple weeks back. Well it looks great but the holes where I needed to mount the bracket to my floorboard mount were not big enough for the bolt to slide through and screw in. Guess I will be sending it back. Too bad, it looks pretty damn good.

It looks perfect. I am will be out of town for the next few days, but will install and and take pictures to show. But overall. it looks like a good product.Before I purchase, do these look right?

Brackets are different.So, if you should send it back, you might keep an eye on this one: http://www.empmotorparts.nl/en/crash-bars/crash-bars-top-line-35-mm/crash-bars-top-line-35-mm-black/14-11-0362-bl-crash-bar-top-line-black-coated
It's black, but they've also got it chromed.
It's not really pricey and, I can tell it for sure, it's well made and strong: I've bought one black for ma-deuce (800) and last summer an I-D-I-O-T just crashed down her but, fortunately, no great damages! just a few scratches...

Shipping parts from there to CDN were not to bad so to the US would not be any worse.
