Does anyone know what the diameter of the engine guard tubes are?  I need to order some p clamps for mine and I don't have the information handy.

Thanks!

It depends where you are putting your clamps.  It is 1 1/8" at the 9 and 3 o'clock, but top and bottom is closer to 1" I'm pretty sure.

Yes, Sir. 1 1/8th will get er done. Order??? Every mc shop in the world keeps the Show Chrome clamps in stock - the three piece, "knee cap" type. That is my fav. Holds great. the Kury Super Clamps look good and cost MUCH more, but don't work as well. You may have to ask for them. Some shops don't put them out in customer view. ~Jeff

You know, p-clamp sounds painful.  Can you try drinking less and/or stopping more often first?  2funny

In the morning the p-clamp would be at 12 o-clock and 1 1/8 would not fit, however later in the day around 6 o-clock it would fit just fine......
