Default Headlamp stone gaurd
A few may know I buck the traditional sporty looks of skinny and trim. I like (for my 48 anyway) beefy and rugged looking (yes I know its just looks). I have seen a few bikes with headlamp stone guards on them..........thought it looked pretty good. Didn't feel like paying the price though. About 15 years ago I had a yard project that I needed a little hardware mesh......kind of a flimsy fence material. I still had a butload left over stuck in the back of the basement. Traced it out, cut it with scissors........slapped it on. I knew there was a reason I never throw anything away

Very nice! So it is plastic, not metal? All I have seen is metal mesh.
