Default Harley Drop Guards!

Slow Speed Drops can and will happen to any rider! Not a question of “if” but “when”!
I have a set of brand new polished stainless steel drop guards that I can’t use on my bike! Two guards for the front and two for the rear! Protect your saddle bags and your engine guard from expensive repairs because your bike fell over at slow speed manoeuvres.

Your investment; protect it!

Selling for $249 USD! Will ship anywhere in the lower 48 for a flat rate of $25. Text me at (807)626-4789 if interested! You get everything you see in the photos!

Default Primary Guard??

Are you NOT including the primary guard??

To buy it separately is $150 USD.
So someone would be paying $400 total for this "deal" when they are only $370.00 as a set from Motorcycledropguards.com

I wondered the same thing. Came with mine. I use them as I do a lot of parking lot work, love them, but yes, need the primary guard for this to be a good deal.

Default Just to be clear!

The primary cover is NOT included. If it was; it would be in the ad. I spoke with Jay from DropGuard and it was based on his recommendation that the price was set at $249. I would go so far as to knock the shipping down to $10- but that’s it! They are brand new so there you have it. Ready to ship!

Well, this is what I found out. The Primary Guard is not even available anymore as a seaprate purchase. AND from Jay's email - the benefit is surely minimized without the Primary Guard. So IMO, no value except for someone who may be looking to replace parts / pieces. And then that price... But sure, best wishes on the sale.
At least transparency happened so someone can buy them with all the facts.

Default Piper and reaper

Don’t you guys have better things to do than cockblock someone from honestly selling a brand new item. There was a time that the primary guard was not available at all but now it is; just a slightly longer wait time. Misleading ppl so they avoid buying something is ignorant. If you don’t want something: read the ad and move along. If you observe in all the videos on slow moving drops; the primary does not make contact with the ground if the corner guards are installed properly. You would have to slam down hard on something raised off the road to damage the primary. I thought it would save folks some money if they didn’t have to shell out almost $400 for the full meal deal. I will Ship the guards to anywhere in the lower 48 for the $249! Don’t like the price; then make an offer. But don’t say they’re useless without the primary guard. That is not entirely accurate. 🤦🏼‍♂️

cmon guys - you hate Canucks or what???

Default The skinny on MDG

Drop Guards will work effectively and prevent your bike from saddlebag and fairing damage if installed as per Jay’s video! You do NOT require the Primary cover guard for this to work. However, if you happen to only install a Primary cover guard and not have the 4 point drop guards; it will not operate effectively. So if you don’t have almost $400 USD to spend right now, you can buy these guards now for $249 and get a Primary cover guard at some point in the future! I am open to legitimate offers!

These kinds of "price police" comments should be made through PM's rather than $hitting on someones for sale thread ... Bad JuJu

You tell ‘em Uncle Larry! And it’s always done under the guise of “righteousness”; like they’re saving everyone from some unscrupulous poster. 🤦🏼‍♂️
