Default Best Front Fender Mods

Hey there, looking to either modify my front fender on my 08 street bob or replace it. Looking to see what others have done to there scoots out there, I am just tired of all the mud and dirt being slung onto the motor. Any help would be appreciated Thanks in advance!

Dennis

Maybe not what you're looking for, but here's my mods:
1) Hogged-out my mounting holes to lower it closer to the tire.



2) Lower mounting position needed for fender to clear fork brace (which I just love!)



3) Finished look



Red fender currently on bike modified the same way BEFORE custom paint.

Just contacted them and guess what...? They dis---con---tinued the line. That completely sucks! I've been searching for the perfect front fender for months now and that was it. Oh well, thanks anyway brother.
