Anyone else see that the company is now selling a kit for chopping the rear fender? It just kills them to see us doing these things for free. http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/g...bmLocale=en_US

 

MSRP US $349.95 LOL Oh my God leave it to Harley to charge 350.00 for something you can do damn near for free. I guess it might be alright if you got 350.00 and a vivid black bike and your lazy as hell.

 

yeah, I saw that... I just got out my jigsaw and cut my own last week... cost me $free.99 . Plus it's a lot more fulfilling when you do it yourself, instead of just buying everything and just bolting it on, or having the stealer do it....

 

check out the link the OP provided...

the moco chopped fender makes the bike look like a dirtbike.

not only is doing it yourself free, but you can chop it to your specs rather than spending 350 for someting that may or may not look good.

next up is a $100 reflector removal kit.

 

We laugh but a guy I work with won't let anyone BUT the dealer put parts on his bike and 99%, they have to be factory HD parts too.


I've giving him a hard time now cause here he is, trying to trade it in on a street glide (his is a 07 Lowrider) and is PISSED cause he has 26k wrapped up in it with all the labor and parts and they want to give him 14k. (Which I still think is a great deal for him considering).



A fool and his money........

 

I guess it all depends on where your priorities are. I do all my own work as well, but I've got a buddy knockin' down probably $250K a year, and he never turns a wrench on his bike. Says all he wants to do is ride it. Different strokes for different bank accounts. No matter how much $$ I've got, it's hard to see anyone else mess with my scoot. I guess it's a personal thing.

 

i want the hacked fender too but i am not paying 350 for it you can get 3 fenders off ebay for that price and then make money selling them half off..lol

 

Dont forget the $195 for the side mount license plate kit too!

 

it would look alot better on a lowered bike.

 

DAMMIT I wanted to post up the Canadian price for a laugh but the price is unavailable at this time! Count on it being at least 100$ more. I wanted to try chopping my rear fender but the FB fender curves up not down,I can't figure what might look good right yet. BTW the pic on their website does look kinda dirt bike-ish. Like some dilapidated wanna-be parasol. It just sits too high,so I guess you pay exorbitant money for a product and then have to mod it to look good.
