Diameter of engine guards

**Jared** · 03-18-2011, 11:11 AM

What is the diameter of the engine guards? 1.25 or 1.5?

**ringadingh** · 03-18-2011, 11:13 AM

Im not near my bike at the moment but Id guess they are closer to either 1" or 1 1/8" .

I believe mine are 1". I have an '05 1600. Not sure if they've changed over the years. Sounds like you're looking for clamps for highway pegs. ;)

I believe the handle bars are 1 inch. The guards a bit thicker. Possibly 1 1/8.

I'm looking at buying some new pegs, but they are offered in 1.25 and 1.33?

Id pass on them then, theyre too big, I have the Kury pegs and it hard to keep them on tight without wanting to swivel on the bars.

Jared,
I'm almost positive the handlebars are 1" and the guard bars 1.25"...

Yep, you are right.

The circumference is 4". 4/Pi = 1.27"

:)

I have the receipt for my clamps at the house. If you want to wait, I can check when I get home and let you know. I'm sure someone on here is pretty positive about it. I asked the same question on here before, but couldn't find my previous post about it.

I went and measured the crashbars on my bike and they are only 1 1/8" , it looks like there may be two different diameters.
