no...i.meant a fender that is mounted to the swingarm....so it replicates the hardtail look while retaining the softail ride
Seeing as there's less aftermarket support for the '18+ Softails than there is for most Japanese bikes at this point you'd have to start with a universal fender and do your own fabrication. If you did that, you'd still have to deal with the swingarm, which looks nothing like a rigid Harley (at least to me). My solution is to hide that ugly mess behind saddlebags.
