Have you removed your rear mudguard?

[MondoRich]

Fitted Mr Hooton's excellent toolbox but it's a lowered bike and the suggestion is to remove the mudguard to avoid contact under suspension loading.

Just wondering if you have as:

It leaves some bare metal showing on the final drive - have you removed the three spacers from the mudguard and re-used?

I have some chromed steel bolts that are M6 that will fill the three holes (shorter length required if not using mudguard spacers) - am I at risk or some cross metal corrosion?

Thank you for any help
