Yeah, sure enough. I'm sure Joe will want to get that changed so it doesn't grab brush and stuff off the ground and sweep it up into the chain.

I'm used to seeing them on the disk brake side also to protect the disk from rocks etc.

Head Scratching More training for CSC assembly crew?

Nice catch indeed.
Looks like it may be necessary for more training for the CSC assembly crew.
It appears that at lot of oversights are making their way through the final assembly and inspection cycle prior to shipment! Some could turn out endangering the new owners!

Maybe Joey uses it for brush clearing?

Well, I've been riding for 48 years and have yet to have my finger sucked into a chain, so I'm sure it's nothing to "call out the guards" on. ;-)
In all honesty, the guys at CSC are rolling through these bikes as quickly as possible and they seem to be doing a bang-up job getting them out. I'm sure something is bound to get missed, especially on the first go-round.

I agree 100% with you. I'm glad they're moving through quickly, and the shark fin thing is way down on my list of priorities. I am glad to know which way it ought to go though, since some of the roads I ride have a lot of tumbleweed, sagebrush, and thistle that I'd rather got deflected from my chain.

Actually, I'm only 57.....but I've never not had a bike since I got my beater Honda 90 from an uncle when I just turned nine...so I had an early start.

Take yer time.... once your brain finally gets most of it all figured out, your body is too beat up to do anything about it!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that shark fin chain guard bit is supposed to be angled towards the rear. A search of the web reveals several images of other bikes with a similar guard mounted angled towards the rear. For example:
