cheapest chain guards
Even though the drags got rained out last night (I hate the NW sometimes), I went through tech, and they told me I need a longer chain guard. Where did you get yours from, and how much. I saw a nice cheap aluminum one on ebay for $40ish shipped.

I have that one. It is ok for the money but the cutout at the back mount area makes for a point I am concerned about. It could fatigue crack. It shows it to be solid in their picture but it is indeed lightened in that area on the one you get.

That one from ebay is the one that Bawls had when his chain came apart. It did its job and saved his leg, but the side of his bike was torn up. But I am not sure my Tiger Racing chain guard would have held up any better. The guy that sells those said that he copied a Tiger Racing guard.

Looks like a definite improvement over the shit plastic guard the factory installs

How come a longer chain guard is required? Is yours stretched?

Silverblt a lot of tracks require the end of the chain guard to be to center of rear axle.
