I have the MacGyver on mine. Some pretty spirited rides during last year's Rally left it like this.20160923_093701.jpg

I chose the MacGyver because it is thicker material than those made by Show Chrome or Big Bike. One comparison sidea by side and the others just seem flimsy.
Mine mounted, is snug up to the bottom of the engine. I've used it in lifting the bike once,just to see. The weight of the bike ,in my case was on the engine mainly. The belly pan just gave a broader more even surface to lift on. The pan could always be painted. JMTCW
