Chain Guards

Chain Guards

While you ride your Harley, the chain guard is supposed to protect you and your motorcycle against dirt and lubricants that are thrown off from the chain. At the same time, the chain guard is supposed to protect the chain itself from rain and other negative environmental influences. Unfortunately, most tires run so close to the chain that there is hardly any space left for a cover between the two. As a result, the chain guards usually do not protect the chain from the water and dirt that the tire rotation brings with it. The only thing that may help here is regular chain care.
