The sales rep at Bad Dad thought it would work with the 200 but couldn't guarantee it. I noticed that you are also running a 17" rear wheel...did you go with the 200 rear tire as well? If so, does it fit without any issues?

Thanks.

I haven't ridden mine with the fender yet. Put it on over the winter. I can't remember what size tire is on my back (if it's a 50 or 55 series) and I'm back in Kuwait until late April so I can't check. I know the 200 was a "tight fit" in the swingarm, but it did fit.

Are you also running a Bad Dad Summit rear fender?

Welcome home. I'm in Afghnistan now, and the parts are piling up at home as I speak. I was going to do the Yaffe plate, where did you end up putting your inspection plate? Everything looks great on your bike.

That looks great! I like how that rear fender looks now. I saw it on their site and didnt appeal to me. But with fresh paint and installed it looks great.

I went with the touring all in one fender. Well havent ordered it so I could still go back to this one.
