I believe Paul Jr from that hotbed of intellectual thought, American Chopper, put it best when speaking about open primaries - the same could apply here.

"... sure you'll lose a few pairs of pants, but it looks cool".

Looks good, I run without guards and had a belt break at 20,000 miles, rock or something.

They all look good without the guard but one stone pushed through the belt may change your mind later. Cost of a belt & the 9 hours to pull down the entire primary side & drop the swingarm to replace it may have you wondering later if it was woth it. Especially if the shop has to do the work.

I saw a guy gets a sweatshirt sucked into the rear wheel, his biked skidded and threw his *** of the bike like a bucking bronco into the freeway lanes and off to the hospital he went.

Looks awesome man. Having to buy a new belt down the road is worth the appearance.
