No fender? I did ride her without for awhile, and got tired of all the mud, etc. splattering up the front of the frame, motor, etc. So, I decided to try a slim fender. As far as the windscreen......getting the wind off your chest when riding at sustained speeds on the highway is great! It lessens the fatigue. My bike isn't a garage queen. I ride my bike....ALOT!

nope. This is my front fender. Sold all my old stuff. Wouldn't have worked without adapters anyway, as my new frontend is a softtail/wideglide setup, versus the stock narrowglide.

Joe -
I have an aftermarket WG front end and it has spacers and brackets that allow the stock fender to fit - a bit pricey though.
Now - I understand that you don't have the stock fender anymore - but a WG fender should not be difficult to come by?

Anyway - I really like everything you did to Susie - with the exception of leaving off the front fender (see my comments in your "Susie" thread).

I like the windvest too! - put a real front fender on her!

oh, I chose this fender! You can get it either cut, like mine, or stock. Mine was 10 bucks more.....plus the cost of powdercoating and the chrome button head allen screws.

Looks good!
Doesn't even look like the same bike anymore.

Looks good. I'm interested in the front signal relocation kit you have. I'm looking for one and I like the look of yours, nice and close to the forks.
