Hi all,


I have some questions.

I have some of those little half round rings that bolt onto the valve
cover. Now, these are NOT headguards but htings to keep your leg from
hitting the head and getting burned,right?

I have seen these bolted both fore and aft of the head(one pointing to the
carbs, one pointing to the exhaust port)at the same time! I just removed
them as the crashbars are still in place.

So, are head guards really needed on loop frames w/crashbars?
Are the half round gizmose good for anything besides "solphlurious chrome'?
GuzziBill, any thought's on that?
