Thinking about removing front fender?

I got rid of all the ugly reflectors and tank emblems the other day. Now I'm thinking about removing the front fender? Just want to get some thoughts on wat you all think? Pics of your Fender-less bikes would be cool too!

Thanks, JB

I run fender-less, haven't had any issues. Of course, if it rains or the road is wet, it's a little messy. Just a risk you take for the look. I've seen some that look slick with a fork brace and no fender, too.

I cut 6" off the front and 5" off the rear of the stock unit. Might as well not be running one at all... But I like the look

I run a real short one in the front chopped about 9" total off it.....run it with and without. No real difference but keep it on to keep the troopers off my ***.

Prepare to have sand, grit, and water in your face. But yeah it looks cool as hell.

Again a question of form-v-function. Long as it doesn't rain or the road is wet you'll be fine.
