Default fender delima

well, I got a good deal on a rear fender from a 2010 fatboy. My delima is if I should keep it as a full fender or chop it. Part of me wants to keep it long, but I know I will want some dual fishtails then.....

Keep it as it is. Otherwise, I really don't see the point. Fishtails are good!

yeah, I can kind of see your point Drew...I hate to basically cut half the fender I paid for off, but there are a few on here with chopped fatty fenders...it looks pretty sweet.

I like the full length rear fender better. Just my opinion.

Keep the full fender look. When people have chopped that fender it never ends up looking 100% correct.

BTW I have a Fat Boy fender front and rear if anyone is interested. They are painted factory Denim Black

Rear Fender comes with Struts blinkers and LED Brake Light.


Good luck with your project fender!

Is it the wide fender for the 200mm tire? If it is PM me, I'm interested in the rear fender only though. Thanks!
