been a while since I have done anything but ride my old girl
Finally broke down and bought a chain guard on feebay and it was butt ugly

Wrapped it with some carbon fiber wrap looks way better but really need to have one made
this swingarm was designed to have a tire hugger/chain guard combo not sure if I would/ could pull that off
it would be destroyed from hitting the frame in no time
