Splatter should be reason enough to keep it.
I don't know if its any safety issues.
How bad is it? Have you tried metal polish.
If its too bad strip the chrome and paint it. -
its plastic... and badly damaged, im wondering if a chrome one of a 750l will fit my 750e?Comment

OEM is only 100 bucks at alpha-sports
61311-49002-019 is your oem part and 61310-49100 is the part number for the L of that same year.Comment

If you ride with a passenger, then check the position of the rear footrest... you don't want any risk of contact between the chain and feetComment

None here in years but then I don't have passenger pegs either. My left rearset from an early Gixxer does have a bit of chainguard built into it.Comment
