Need some help here to decide which is better with the Indian type fender from Bad Dad.
Full length which comes below the frame level or flush with the bottom rails?
To cut some off the bottom would make curbs and ramps easier to manover over to be fair but still need the low look!

 

Why dont you ask the guys over at bad dad how low you can go and hit hit.....I'm sure they know.

 

Bikehunter,

If you are keeping your saddlebags stock, I would use their shorter fender. That is what I did. If you are stretching your bags, then I would definitely get the longer fender.

Good product either way.

 

I will end up with the 4 1/2" bag extentions but feel I should at least remove 2" on the lower part!

 

Good point bujt I would like to know what the forum thought?

 

Definitely get the skid plates on the bottom of the saddle bags, they seem to hit alot from my experiences.

 

I bolted the fender to the bike and went for the any excuse ride!
The fender under hard braking caused a bit of a concern as it touched the rectifier!
I pumped up the forks and it was a great improvement!
I also cut two inches off the bottom and reshaped it as it was looking a bit strange being a lot lower than the rest of the bike, also the edge was very close to the shed ramp where I push the bike out of. I think this is better now as it flows a bit to my liking. I checked all the Indian pictures and theirs are the same level with the frame so I'm a happy chappy!
