lets see your chain guards

I wanna use a new chain guard on the bike. Tossed the old one. So I'm wondering who's running what? I'm not sure I like the way huggers look. Guess it depends on the bike its on. so let's see who's got something other than stock

I just run it without. I don't know, but I didn't really like the looks of it much. Makes a little mess sometimes after lubing the chain. No big deal. I wash the bike often.

i like the look of the bike without one but im trying to see if theres one that stands out enough for me to bother getting. the ebay ones are expensive, carbon fiber pieces are nice but not cheap for what it is. so maybe an aluminum one, i dunno, im trying to get some ideas, worst case scenario i leave it the way it is

i used to run without one, but i got tired of scrubbing the underside of the tail and the back of my left pant left with simple green.

Mine's integrated into the hugger I added... Has a bit of a gap before the front sprocket cover, but not enough to make a mess.



I know you said you're not partial to huggers on the Superhawk, but I thought I would chime in anyhow for other readers.

do you have a shot of how it sits at theback by the rear sprocket? i found a setup like yours the other day but the guard looked like it was just huge
