This is a good time for everyone to read there Motorcycle policy or call there agent/company. The $1000 medical spoken of above is pretty standard because the medical part is very expensive and EVERYONE looks at bottom line before coverage. And suggesting others leave SF because you bought low coverage limits does not seem like a good idea to me. I work in the ins field, not for SF but they are the big boy and have plenty of money and seem willing to spend it as long as you bought what you need. IMO.



I didn't switch because I didn't buy it. I have all my cars and home with them.

It is the highest medical limit they offer.

Personally I carry maximum liability 100/300/100 with increased
medical and underinsured / Uninsured motorist.

I also was a licensed broker in one of the previous businesses Ive owned.

If you have State Farm you have 1,000.00 medical.

I assumed ( we all know the definition)
that I would receive the same coverage as my other vehicles.
especially since it cost more than twice what I pay now.

Rear Rear Saddlebag Guard Kit # 49282-09B now available, in stock. I installed them in less than two hours, with coffee breaks. I think they look OK and might protect the saddlebags and my leg if I tip the bike over.

Just think of it as added protection, quit saying "Tip over" that scares me  :)

They look fine.

The guards protected my bike when I went down on it.  The real reason to have them though is to have a place to mount the leather thingies that hold your water bottle!

I had a low-speed dump with my '02 ultra on a gravel (read loose rock) access road.  I had the rear guards and the trim rails that go around the bags.  When I went down, the bag still got damaged, so did the bag rails and the bag guard and the engine guard, so instead of just having to replace the saddle bag and the engine guard, I had to replace the saddle bag guard and the saddle bag rail also...having all that on, just cost me (read the insurance company) more.  I was protected, ankle leg-wise, by the engine guard and not the bag guard, so......I dunno :nixweiss: .  I have them on the SEUC, but didn't have them on the 08 SG and I don't have any intentions of putting them on the SESG.  2010FLHXSE, I understand why you put them on, but to be perfectly honest, I think they would have looked better on the Spiced Rum, if they were black... :nixweiss:

Hoist, How was this test done? Did you just let the bike fall over (without rider) right & left?

Nope, we let the blue SG get hit by a car, sent him flying into me, had him go down and slide into my fork, and put me down too. We both slid around 100 yards. Yep, crashing sucks! Believe me, I wasn't out there testing this chit for youze guys, although sometimes it appears that way, don't it?!!! ::) ;)

My damage was minimal with crash bars F&R vs. the SG with no SB crash bars! :2vrolijk_21:

Does any have the "black" version on a bike with other chrome (not all blacked out)?  I am curious is the black will lesson the visual impact.
