problem is I can't weld worth a damned (don't even have the tool any way), so I'll probably have to think of something "outside of the box". Maybe I'll be able to adapt the works connection brace I have on the kdx and the devol, might look funky, we'll see.
Any idea on how you would get started from scratch?
thanks

Get yourself a sheet of stainless steel, cut it to size and drill lots o holes in it.

I don't think any welding will be needed. Like Brian said... a piece of stainless....

I ordered the Devol guards. They're on back order through Tucker Rocky at my dealer, but they're still available. They are sheet aluminum across the feont with a brace around the back.
