Gatorbacks here. I like them but then I have no sense of "style".

I've bought mudflaps from them for two vehicles now. They've held up super well, I'll be buying them again when my SD gets here.

I went with Huskys all around. They look good but seem a little shorter than the OEM ones. They do a pretty good job with protection.

IMO, less is more.
I used Weathertech products, and their splash guards do the job without sticking out with shiny logos or trinkets attached.
Mount in minutes and most importantly, blend right in.

My favorite part of that picture is the XR600R (wait...I don't see a kickstart lever, so maybe its a XR650L?)

Yup, it’s an L, my grandpa bike! It’s an 01 that I bought new. Planning on having a big party next year for our 20th anniversary!

Originally I was planning on Gatorbacks, but at near $600 for the full set, I hesitated. Decided to go with Duraflaps instead at half the cost (but still fairly expensive at $300.)

I didn't have front flaps on my previous truck. It didn't throw a huge amount of stuff on the side of the truck, so I didn't worry about it. But on the F450, no front flaps was really bad for throwing crap on the sides and dually hips. Then I installed the included factory front flaps, which were marginally better. So I went with Duraflap's extended width fronts, and it has helped a lot.

Nice. Have an '06 XR650L. Gobs of torque, but it is quite a different beast from my CRF450X. The L's have a huge following, and can be a handful offroad, if not paying attention.

Had mine on the USFS trails near Cloudcroft to doing cross country offroad runs across Missouri. In Texas, its mainly used as a dual sport just for grins.

Ride safe and have fun!

I went with the Ford stock ones, to be part of the build. Nothing like kicking up rocks and busting windshields. I actually think it adds to the truck, and offers a bit of protection.

I put Gator Backs on my current truck and I love them, they were a pain to install but do a pretty good job of stopping debris and look good to boot. I went with the plain black ones without the stainless weight. I've used the OEM molded flaps in the past and they install really easy and look good but they were never long enough to stop much.

I also like white letter tires so maybe I'm a grandpa at heart
