Ok I got the rear fender picked out, now for the front. Can anyone tell me what the width of the mounting area is for the front fender on a 2011 Fatboy. I'm looking at the Russ Wernimont Rambler fender with a 18 inch wheel.

 

what width are you talking about?

Overall width of the fender itself? Or space between mounting brackets?

 

I'm trying to order a Russ Wernimont Rambler fender and the width sizes are 5.5 and 6.25 When I measured the fender at the dealership it thought it was 7 inches wide???

 

I don't have my fender removed. So the best I can do is a guesstimate.


But I am reading right at 6 1/2 inches. Hope it helps...

 

My front tire is a 140mm so the 5.5 inch one is out for sure.


The 6.25 might be the one. Like I said, I have a tape measure floating above the fender trying to look down and eyeball it up.



Let me look around in the 2011 Softail Manual....it may be in there somewhere.

 

Thanks any help will be appreciated.

 

I thumbed through the service manual. Couldn't find anything that mentioned front fender width or clearance.

But I can tell you the gross weight of the bike

 

The mounting brackets are exactly 6.5" wide.

 

See. My eyes haven't failed me yet
