Heel guards

[croat1]

Heel guards have been a wish/project list of mine for far too long.  I tried working with 2 ATV parts shops over the years.  Both times I left multiple frames, heel guards and foot pegs (and a pocket full of cash) to get samples done.  Both times I took my stuff back because I was promised and promised a sample but nothing came of it.

Fast forward to the current date.  After getting hurt 2 times in 4 years I think it’s time to make my own.  I ordered some pre bent tubing for mock up.

For reference here’s AC Racing Bkackline nerfs with 86/87 IMS heel guards.

Not sure if I’ll do a netted version or the “plate” style.

ac racing and rath both have heel guard options... why are you trying to make your own?

I have 4 sets of non heel Guard AC Racing Blackline nerfs and 4 sets of IMS pegs.  Utilizing what I have.

I prefer netted.  Ims Sheet style cracked on my 450r.

Would prefer the the sheet back. Mine always failed at the mounting area. The material thickness used was too thin. When beefed up, no more cracking.
