Here's a question I bet no one's asked before (sound of sarcasm entering the room... Can I use the small rear fender from an Scg on my Ss in order to eliminate the upper belt guard? Otherwise, it'll take some patience and creativity- neither of which I have- with a dremel to remove the belt guard from the stock Ss fender at the risk of making it look like ka-kah. TIA. |

Just out of curiosity...why remove the guard at all? Keeps crap from flipping up onto you and the underside of the bike. I know, I've looked. While it obviously isn't chain lube, it's still pretty grubby. Mike |

the stock rear hugger does zero in keeping crap off the under side of the tail or the rider on an Ss. I have the tea strainer elimiator and get mud up my back weither i have the rear hugger on or not. the stock rear hugger with the upper belt guard will protect you or a passanger from a belt flying off. i have seen a welt from that off a Harley on a lady passangers leg. didn't tickle. |

I thought about removing mine (Ss as well), but it looks like that upper belt is more for wet conditions. Being out from underneath the tail, I bet it would sling muck all over the place. ~SM |
