go for it, more good than bad (no bad does not affect airflow). I rode a Goldwing from Texas to Alaska and it was one thing less to worry about (damage to tank/filter).

Yeah, you guys are right. The cost of any road hazard damage or danger from fluid loss would be SOOO much more than the cost of prevention.
Plus I get MORE ACCESSORIES!!!!
Is it a bad thing when both the UPS and FEDEX drivers Beep and wave to you like an old friend when you pass them on the street?
Lots of bikes have oil filters, cooling reservoirs and radiators exposed to the possibility of getting punctured/hit by road debris or other means. I'm choosing not to invest in the Belly Pan. Had one one my 2004 Wing, but not doin that again. Just sayin ....
I bought mine to protect the exposed engine components and to keep the hot Texas winds from catching in the void under the frame. It seems to be doing a good job on both. It is really cheap insurance and, like said, easy to install.

I would say it's a good investment. With rocks and other debris littering the roadway ready to damage the underside of your bike, it's a great way to prevent catastrophe.

Texas Cycle Chrome is where I bought mine. A lot of places carry them, all around the same price. I bought the Tulsa belly pan.
Got my Show Chrome black anodized belly pan at Wing Stuff for $54.99. Fit and finish were great. There is another black pan on the site for about $77 that reviewers complain about regarding the fit where the front and back pan meet. No such problem with the Show Chrome. Not shown well in the picture of the Show Chrome are the vent holes that run the length of the pan. They provide some venting, for whatever that's worth, and look good. Free shippiing.
