i like the chariot fender, but i ask this, is it backwards? looks like a fat boy fender mounted backwards. this flip is usually on the bottom. just my opinion.

It also looks to me like the custom fender is on backwards.

It is backwards but I am backwards too! Thats the way I like it!
Besides the right way is going to hit the crash bar & lowers.

That ought to promote some conversation at your stops.
I think I'd have some fun with that. Act like I didn't know. "Backwards? Really? Oh ****!"

Still scratching my head as far as opinion goes, but I bet in person it looks pretty good!

We do personalize our bikes right? We don't want to look like clones, right?

I'm still lost why the fender would clear one way, and rub if it were on the other way.
Must be the mounting holes?

I wonder if the extra curve on the front will help promote wheelies? (Just kidding, or we'd all be doing it).

To be honest... customized backwards has my vote... Could you throw some still up here though, I'd like to see different angles. I love the color by the way... Freq'n Awesome!

Not very appealing in closeups and will look worse farther away.Does not flow at all.

If you keep the custom fender you're gonna get tired real quick hearing the 'it's on backwards' comments.
