Has anyone seen custom struts or strut covers? I have searched all over to no avail.
I'm lookin for something to change out those plain Jane fender struts. I might go the strutless route I've seen a couple times on here, or if I can't find any production strut options maybe find someone to fab some one offs for me. I just don't have the shop to do it myself.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

 

Haven't seen any nice strut covers but saw some nice swing arm covers in the J&P book Part #701-200 $88.99 I got them on mine now.They fit 1991-2005.

 

Incredible.... so I am the only one here that is interested in getting rid of the stock struts? no fabrication ideas? no sightings?

 

just paint matched mine

 

pow pow powwwwwder coat!

 

You could drill out 1" holes on the front of the strut covers and back light the inside of the struts with led strips like these.

I would powder coat the strut covers black. So when you look at the bike you will see the strut covers in black with holes and the struts are black and back lit in what ever color you want. I hope that made sence.

 

i mean, a strut cover is a strut cover. what exactly are your looking for?

could maybe drill some holes in the covers and let the black shine through. thats something i havent seen yet... but i dont know how it would look, might work!

 

If you're looking for something like the curved struts on the Heartland kit for Softails, the Dyna frame doesn't really allow for that. You could always do like Bosken, Crooky, and a few others and just saw yours off the frame. That way you could either go strutless or do something that is more decorative but not really structural.

 

The powder is definately an option, and I love the strutless look of Crooky/Boskens rides, I would like the strength retained though. Love to get some wicked spike/blade lookin covers fabbed. Or take a wider fender and mount it "over" the struts so they are hidden. We shall see...
Thanks for the input.
