Default Saddle bag guard removed

Any ideas on how to cover the holes left in the bag guards after the rails are removed? Looks like about 300 for new one with out the rail holes.

Look for an owner of a same year limited or streetglide who wants to trade.

guards sure are handy when some azzhat on a cafe style cb750 running on 3 cylinders tries to squeeze in next to you and his spikes rip your bags.

Go to your local hardware store and look for those little plastic plugs....they have all sizes.

I did put a bolt in, but looks crooked due to the angle the holes are drilled. May just look for replacement guards. Thanks for your suggestion tho.

I think you can buy Chrome tape somewhere

I do agree with you it looks weird I saw a bike with the holes last week and it looks strange
