I do have a fender that I bought for another bike (since sold). Here is the description from the manufacturer (and pic)...PM me if interested.


READY TO USE AS AN OEM REPLACEMENT PART OR FOR FXST MODELS WANTING TO CONVERT OVER TO FULL ONE PIECE FENDERS

* FITS ALL SOFTAIL MODELS FROM 1984-99 AS A CUSTOM REPLACEMENT
* Replaces OEM #59093-87
* UNPAINTED RAW FINISH WITH PRE-DRILLED HOLES FOR THE FENDER STRUTS
* FENDER HAS A SMOOTH FINISH WITHOUT A TAILLIGHT MOUNTING SO THAT CUSTOM TAILLIGHTS CAN BE USED
* 50-73211-05

Thanks everyone im really excited about this bike its a dream to ride and has plenty of power to make the ride fun. like I said this isnt my first Harley i have an old ironhead (see below) but between the constant broken parts (not that i cant fix them just would like to ride more then wrench) and lack of 5th gear it was time to upgrade.




Highwayman i like the rear fender on yours, do you know how much longer then stock it is? I wasnt sure how it would look on a non-heritage but yours looks killer.
