I love it when aftermarket accessories combine aesthetic improvement and maintain or exceed OEM performance requirements. This is the case with the Franks Parts upper and lower belt guards for the 2007 swing arm. They are a very high quality fiberglass part - offering strength and light weight. They come in paint-ready white and install in minutes. All I did was hit the edges with fine sandpaper, clean and de-gloss with a paint-prep and apply three or four nice coats of Krylon "Fusion" satin black paint. What an improvement - subtle but really clean. Check it out. Oh yea, Franks Parts only accepts bank transfers which is a little inconvenient but they are top-flight with product quality and delivery turn-around. Entire transaction took less than three weeks. Here is the "before & after"
