That looks really good! Is it easy to take off to clean? How much was it and where did you get it?

Ok guys, be honest, would the head light guard look good with my bike, or not go with the look? I know it's easy to go overboard with stuff.

Hey Ponycorn, I think the guard is quite subtle and wouldn't look out of place. Have you thought about bar end mirrors? They really change the front of the bike, although they do take a bit of getting used to?

Probably will get some bar end mirrors, but I'm ok with the stock mirrors for a while. I've ridden my husbands Thruxton with bar ends and it's ok. The image gets blurry with vibration, but I think that has more to do with his clip ons.

Yeah, I have to admit. I have a weak spot for those head light covers. I might have to get one.

Its difficult to say whether a bike looks good or not with it but i think it adds a retro look as i am riding my bike on a lot of VMCC runs until i get my Ariel vh500 done i have fitted a number of add ons like the tank rack engine bars and am changing the number plate to a non date related one to help the bike blend in i know i am fooling nobody but when your riding with older bike i like to look the part

How did you load my picture on to your page please SuperStock ?
