Default heal guards... yeah or nah...

I can't decided wether or not I like these custom heal guards... what do you guys (and gals) think?

I would get the blue ones cause I have a blue bike... more blue makes it faster

To me they just look too much if you know what I mean, which would be kind of hard cause I kinda don't know what I mean. I saw some nice ones where the zx6r and 636 were cut into a pieice of metal, I wish I could remember where I saw them. If i remember I will let you know.

They look good. Only one big and critical problem; They have sharp points that can catch you jeans, socks or shoe laces and prevent you from putting down your foot at a stop. I had that happed to me once when my shoelace got caught on the peg and I almost fell/ dropped the bike. Those ones that you want to get look even more easier to get things caught on. They could poke you too. Just something to think about.

Not a fan for the same reason as Speed, but to each his own. I do think they look cool, I just know I am clumsy and I can see a fall in the future with me and those things.
