Good morning, I'm on the search for some new engine guards as my current ones are showing their age with chipping chrome. Partzilla/Revzilla/Partsnerd have none in stock and the ones I've come across on eBay are in worse condition than my own lol. I found this manufacturer https://www.roadstyler.com/en/shop/front-engine-guards-honda-valkyrie-f6c/ that sell new engine guards for a great price. I've only seen 1 forum post about these and they mentioned that they were of good quality. I can see they are slightly different from stock so I'm curious if anyone has a picture of these mounted that they can share and also tell me about their experience with the product. Happy Holidays folks. |

Do you have a Standard/Tourer or Interstate? I have a set of Interstate engine guards that are brand new in the factory box.

Stock are pretty durable but them having a set of rear ones that fit a standard 1500C intrigues me for sure. Thanks for the link.
Merry XMas!

The company also offers a light bar that allows for the use of the OEM turn signals. I have been looking for one without success.

I bought a fender rack from roadstyler, nice craftsmanship, takes a few weeks to get it, it’s possible they are made to order, but good communication and once its shipped it only takes a few days

Just for conversation, the braces on the roadstyler appear to be at an up angle while the braces on the oem engine guards are horizontal. I would confirm the fitment with Roadstyler.    |

There is a drop-down list where you can change the price to USD for the items. You can go to calculate shipping when you're at the cart. For me (Florida), shipping could cost $43, $65, or $89 depending on what carrier I choose. Let it be noted though, the cheapest option ($43) is by sea and would take around 2 months. |

Cant find a drop down menu for price change? Where on the site is it located? |

If the OEM ones that you have are straight and the only real problem is the chrome is flaking it might be worthwhile getting them rechromed.
