Well, here's my reason, Houtman...engine guards cost about as much as the engine parts they are protecting. Some other look good to me on some bikes, but I don't like the way they look on my bike. When the engine guards get scratched, those scratches are more noticeable on them because the guards are more noticeable than the undersides of the parts they are protecting. In the event of a drop, I'd just be replacing a different part.
