Personally I love the engine guard. The more chrome the better.

I prefer the look of the classic engine guard.

Here is my Heritage with a full engine guard....



Just a note on the mustache bars.....

After 39 years and over 300,000 miles, I finally ha a motorcycle accident. It was slow speed, a cage hit my right side. The front fork, engine guard, handlebars, and windshield took the brunt of the crash.

There was a large scrape mark at the top curve of my engine guard. If I had a mustache bar, the bike would have rolled over more...

With my full bar, there was not one scratch or dent on any of the tins.... they were perfect..... not sure I would have faired the same with a mustache bar. FWIW

Wow thanks everyone - they all look great.

The more I look the more I'm leaning towards the more traditional full bars

I like the moustache ones, but now I've seen more of the full ones I think they look more 'authentic' which is more the looks I'm after on my Slim

Thanks all!

I like the more "traditional" style too. But ever since putting the bar on, I can't really decide if I like it or not. It's been one of those things that it looks ok one minute and the next I'm not as pleased.
