Personally I prefer the less is more design of the Custom.Notsure what your preference is or which direction your taking your bike but personally bad guards on a Custom would not be appealing to me. If you prefer the looks of the standard or classic I certainly understand as they are beautiful bikes as well but that is not what the Custom is about.

I prefer the stock look. That's one of the reasons I bought the Custom. To each his own though. It'd be pretty boring if we all wanted the same thing.

ORIGINAL: miacycles

If you want to really dress them up try high heels, a really short skirt, tube top and some red lipstick. If that doesn't work for you go with the hard bags.
that's funny right there.


i just have to say that the reason i WANT a RK custom is the fact that it's understated.

I added some rattle snake skins to mine and buddy of mine took some deer skin on his ,We 've talke about coming out with a quick change kit to allow to change the center section for differant look.A chrome piece there would be cool or painted with scene on piece of metal.
As for the ones saying changing them is best i disagree 100%.I had rkc stolen and bought another in part due to how cool I thought the leather bags look.Says old fart with attitude to me.

They make these saddlebag guard rails for the hard bags also. Look the same just squared off in the rear rather than rounded. I like the profiled look.

Damn Rick…you’ve hit another homer with that reply.

Thanks Guilty for the part numbers and links…however…I didn’t see your card number and expiration date listed! Oh…and we’ll probably be needin’ that 3-digit number on the back of the card too!

Seriously Sir, thanks.
