Post subject:  Buell X1 Belt Guard Options
Having taken off the hugger (& other gubbins from the swingarm) I am looking for something to attach to the lugs! At some stage I am sure I will go for a lugless polished arm but for now I figure that the lugs look ugly without something attached to them.

I am looking for available options. Stuff I have found inlcude:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CNC-ALUMINIUM ... 35c68dc72f

http://www.twinmotorcycles.nl/webshop/a ... belt_cover

I am not sure that either of these cut it for me.

I want something simple like the guard shown on this photo

Any other options before I get some sheet aluminium and get the hacksaw out?

Just chop the buggers off and get it polished or polish yourself ( hard work ) :yup:

Still considering the cut lugs off option and polish one up (still got a load of US eBay arms being watched), but in the meantime and seeing as it was pissing down last weekend I got out some ally, a saw and a file.

After a bit of fiddling came up with this

Which after powder coating looks like this.

Still might delug and polish an arm at some point in the future but happy that at least two of the ugly lugs are 'taken up' with something useful for the timebeing

It's amazing how inspirational a bit of music can be. :old:
