Looks interesting, but I would think the rear fender would need to be somehow related to it stylistically for it to work - ?

Looks real cool of course like everything else you have done .... but it's not an Indian. I think that goes a tad over the edge. But damn .. it looks cool.

I would say the rear fender would also need to be longer, like a ness taildragger.....also would look alot better with a 21" under the fender if it would be possible. It would definitely be the only one like it.

Looks good. Disproportionate to the tank and rear fender though.

no way man. I'd go with the ness skirted fender or a deeper cut kloks fender but not that. I think it takes away from your bike bro.

A guy that use to work at the same facility has gone through three front fenders on his Indian. Stress cracked covered under warranty, but who would want to go through that.

The fender looks cool, but the rear draws away from it.
