maalna2 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Has anyone changed out or done a mod. to the front fender? That is the only part of the bike that looks out of place to me. On the white and red bikes it does not seem so bad but on the graphite it just looks weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maalna2 Posted November 13, 2014 Author Share Posted November 13, 2014 I am not really sure how to explain it. Maybe because it is the only part on the front forks. Or because on the graphite it has no accent color on it. Wouldn't removing it cause damage to the bike if the tire picks up a rock or something or is it to high up to help in that situation?

Premium Member hobbs Posted November 13, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 13, 2014 Without the fender you'll get sprayed in the face when the roads are wet. The front of the motor or radiator will be prone to wear from small rocks, sand and hard debris. Do as you wish though. Everything went braap.

Premium Member crazycracka501 Posted November 13, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 13, 2014 My best advice is to have someone who can fabricate a new one from sheet metal give you some ideas. I'd be interested in what you come up with. Always room for improvement. Make it stop!....Now make it go faster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member pgeldz Posted November 13, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 13, 2014 The front fender has grown on me. I always thought it would look better with a more rounded look vs the "duckbill" look it has, but like I said, it's grown on me - Paulie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member hippiebikerchick Posted November 14, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 14, 2014 When I first got the 07 I wished it had a red fender like hubs 09. Now I prefer the black and textured look that we have. Illegitimi non carborundum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 You could alway vinyl wrap or plasti dip it of you don't like the color. If you don't like the look though, I can only suggest to make your own that you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasanderson Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Front fender on white model looks too space-like. I took the white plastic off and will fab a smooth round black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
