Few weeks ago lost footing on sand at a stop light and laid her down. No damage at all. Rested on the small steel plate at the rear underside of bag. Ordered the Chrome bag guard kit and intalled today. About two hour job. Not quite as clean a look with the guards but really worth the peace of mind, both for the bags and the wife's legs. Will post pics when I take 'em.

I'm leaning towards them. Another plus is that the seat reinforcments will not allow the installation whereas I will have the new seat. Fortunately my salesman said he will see to it that I get the re-designed seat.

 Hey, let everyone be happy with how they want to dress their ride. Who should judge what another person likes?

A friend of mine managed to slow drop his Spiced Rum last week with the bars fitted, the bags hit the deck but seem undamaged.

Those guards will save your bags. They may take away a little of the sleek look, but if it saves a bag it's worth it. And you can get the leather harley bottle holder for one of them :huepfenlol2:

I received the p/n 49282-09B.  The actual loop guard portion is chrome, however, the under-saddlebag support and rear attachment are black (see photo).  I was expecting all chrome parts.  Should the other part be chrome as well?

That's how mine came also.

If we were logical, we would all be riding non CVO.  Take a look at the Lindby rear footrests/guards.  they look good and protect the bags.

Thanks for confirming.  Weird since the parts they replace are all chrome.

Which guard would look nicer on a BLK/ORG, black or chrome.

on the SESG the stretched part of the bag on the bottom will hit lightly on the ground just before the bars hit. Don't ask how I know......

Bought my wife a 2010 CVO Streetglide. Had the dealer install rear guards before it left the dealership. Don't mind the looks, we attach the HD leather pouches to hold water, disc locks, glasses, Raine-X etc. Saved paint and hide on her last Streetglide when she layed it over. Do whatever makes you feel good and don't worry about what others say or think.
