Default Strutless fender

Has anyone used one of these fenders from kustom werks or kraft tech? I just put a 200 tire on my 05 softail and I like this fender but cant find a picture of it on a bike anywhere. Was curious if I needed to cut some off cause its pretty long.

I put one on my wife's 93. It is solid, but kind of high off the tire. Her bike is super low too. I had to chop it hard to get it to look right. She likes it, but I am not so sure. Looking for which of those two brands mentioned it was now.

Hers is Milwaukee Iron. I looked at the picture you posted and it is different at the mount area, so you might be better off. I don't recommend the Milwaukee Iron fenders, but they are mighty strong. Sorry to raise yer blood pressure for no reason!
Picture anyway....

Im actually looking at the kustom werks but I think they use kraft tech struts. I also want to know how much room I will have between the fender and the tire after lowering the bike 2".

I also put a milwaukee on mine and its high quality, pretty much same as kraft tech or kustom werks. Only prob I had is that you have to slam the bike to get the fender to tire space down. Dont get me wrong I love my bike slammed but when im ridn in D.C. those streets are fu<ked up and I bottom out. But I cut the fender out of the struts and dropped a fender blank in between them, that way I could lower the fender down to the tire and take up some of the space and still be able to raise up the bike.

I have the Kustom Werks strutless on my Bones. I like it, I am going to lower the Bones to take up the space between the tire. Hopefully soon work has been a bitch. The fender is built solid and is of good quality. Check out my pics. Hope this helps

you guys didnt have any issues running that fender on your 200 rear end correct? I have mine coming, and just have to fabricate up the mounting points to make it fit on my 08 nightrain. I'll post pix!

You'll be fine relax if its 9" wide you'll have plenty of room.
