well....considering that all touring models are the same...look at an flhtc or flhtcu and there's the answer.

you can choose black, chrome or make your own color.

advantage when some azzhat decides to squeeze his bike in next to you at the bar...leans in onto his jiffy and bashes your bags.

or a slight driveway tip over is a couple of scratches rather than a $600 bag

rear crash bars, also handy when some chick on her cell phone runs a stop....( saved my leg)

Get some black low profile ones and their blend in pretty well.

I put just the front guards on mine. Will help minimize damage if (when) I drop the bike and also gives me a place to mount the guard bags. I don't care for windshield bags and the guard bags give me a place to keep items such as phone, camera, water, etc, within easy reach while riding.

Sorry for the lousy pictures but when the temps are in the mid 20's the bike is in the garage with the cover on

this is a before and after with saddlebag guards. i bought them used off ebay and cut my saddlebag supports to fit inside. worked and is very solid. i dropped mine when i slipped in some loose gravel when a truck pulled out in front of me. luckily it didnt scratch it too bad but installed these right after.

Just put some on the wifes 14SG a couple weeks ago and they look awesome and today she tested em' 😓 So they already paid for themselves considering the cost of a paint job.

Default Here are mine in use!

I was fortunate enough to try mine out today. I parked the bike in an open parking lot just to have some guy in a pickup back into it and turn it over! Zero paint damage just bag guard, engine guard, grip, and hwy peg scratches. The tour pack guard was bent but no tour pak damage.

I wonder if anyone has tried putting the 14 guards on a 09-13 bike yet?
