Fatboy Fender on Touring
Anyone put a Fatboy front fender on a touring bike?
I‘m thinking about a putting one on my RK and doing a carbon fiber wrap. Seems like that might be a cool look.

I've been looking through some pics of the Fatboy fender on a tour , doesn't look bad at all , shows off more tire . I personally like the looks of a wrapper / hugger type fender . If someone gave me FB fender to try I wouldn't hesitate to give it try , beats paying $$$ for a custom fender .

I put the wifes Freewheeler fender on my RGS just to see. Didn't like the look and it exposes the oil cooler and regulator to more road debris. The Oil cooler on her bike has a pretty good ding in the fins from a rock. Thats why I put the FL fender off my RGS on it. And put a wrap fender on mine.

No doubt it looks clean. My issue is the oil cooler.

I don’t have an oil cooler. Never had issue with a Fatboy fender on a Fatboy. So I guess it wouldn’t kill anything on a King.

What issues are you having? Looks great, I am going back and forth between this and a wrap fender
EDIT, just read your other post about the debris.

Here's Mine
Just finished my rebuild and went w/ a FatBoy front fender. Got here off the classifieds. Looks really good to me.

The only other part that you'll need for the Fatboy fender is going to be the front fender to lower leg adapter kit. #59013-02A
