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!

I have a 97 standard. Thank you for the offer though  :cooldude:

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
Some day never comes

I'm not certain, but... while there's a difference, I think the Interstate
one might work fine...

The last post about these after market Roadstyler engine guard was couple weeks ago and the poster was pleased with the quality and fitment. They're for standard and tourer models only.

Can you get them shipped to USA?
And what about price?

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.

I think it is just an optical confusion. I think the ones in the ad are rotated so they look that way.

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.

I would get them rechromed. If they are damaged they can be repaired before rechroming.
