Custom Guards

[Maas562]

I created a new thread so it wasn't so cluttered.
I am ready to start taking orders for the upper belt guards. These fit my 2008 Firebolt, you are responsible for finding out if they will fit your year/model, ask your dealer. Below I have sample pictures with the designs that I have. If you have something else in mind that you would like to see or have added just let me know in your PM. The price will be $40 per guard for my time + shipping. I can not do the pegusas logo due to copyrights. These are made out of aluminum and I can either leave them with a plain finish, sandblast, or add a brushed look make sure you let me know what you would like. You are responsible to paint/powder coat. I am not responsible for any damage (if any) caused by these guards. I can not warranty these guards, materials can and do fail from time to time. However I have had a guard on my bike for a long while now with no problems at all. PM's only please do not put your order in a comment. Paypal is my prefered way of payment.
Lower belt guards as well as guards to fit older years are on their way so sit tight.

I also have both rider and passenger heel guards available. Below are pictures of some designs. Again if you have something else in mind just let me know. Price for these will be $15 per pair + shipping.

Thanks!

Thanks!
Also I forgot to add. If anybody decides to screw me someway and not pay I will stop making parts for everybody and will keep them all to myself. I will also post your user name and make sure everybody knows what you did. So don't be the guy who ruins it for everyone.

Hey any plans to make one for a 1125?
If not would you make one with the bend reversed and with the mounting holes not drilled? I can do the rest of the work. I just dont have the tools you have. I have been thinking of trying to make one myself, but I dont have the capabilities you have, just good old fashioned hand fabbing.

I like the first design you posted.
Shoot me a PM or email if you'd like. I'd be up for buying one, I could even give you measurements for the 1125 if you wanted. Just let me know what you would need.

Does anyone know if the bolt locations on the '06+ swing arm is the same as the Ss swing arm? Basically will these work on an Ss swing arm?

 

[Jornum1]

I am going to guess no xtreme. But it probably wouldnt take much more then relocating the mounting holes. Unless the angle of the swingarm all together is different.

I think they will fit. At least one guy one here has fitted an S model fender & belt guard to his Ss, the fender doesn't like to best but the belt guard looks fine.
I'll go and find the photo.

I love the Pegasus belt guard! How much are they again? I may have to pick that one up and paint it black.

Read the thread.. the pegasus is not available and the price is listed.

I think I would like a belt guard if it sat a little closer to the belt and maybe curved a little around the end. The pegasus looks great on there!

xtreme- Really crappy pic, but the only one I have that kinda shows it! City-X belt guard and fender on my Uly:

The belt guard bolted right up, the fender took some trimming.

Good to know, thanks for clearing it up Andy!

 

[xtremelow]

Hmm, not digging the gap between the belt and guard but I am sure some moving around can bring them a little closer.

Anyone know if the belt guards will fit on an 03 9R?

No the entire mount setup is different along with the actual angles to the swing arm[smirk]

Here is a side by side look from the '05- and SS

Dusty, My buddy has an 04 12R. It should be the same as yours. He gave me his stock guard for measurements and I will be making some to fit those years soon so sit tight.

Xtremelow, You would like the guard to sit even lower/closer to the belt? Let me know, I can change it and send you a picture.

Dave, I can also play with this for you. You would like the tail end of it to follow the curve of the sprocket?

 

[dave_xb12r]

Yes. It looks like the mounting holes would just need to be 3/4" or so up higher. As far as the bend goes, I could even bend that last inch myself. Hold off on making it though for a week or so. I'm buying a new camera (D7000) as soon as it's back on the shelves and I want to make sure my funds are available for it first.

The guards look great!

 

[Maas562]

Nice camera!
I am on vacation for the remainder of this week anyways.
I'll make one anyways when I get back, it seems you weren't the only one that wanted to see it lowered. I'll post up a pic.
