If you guy's wanted to see
what your Street Bob looks like w/o a front fender here it is.
Had my fender off in prep for polishing my lower sliders and remembered some of you had mentioned running w/o a front fender. I can't,because it rains so much here,but I do like the look. Bet it would really look good with some four or six over tubes.
Good Luck

Does pick up a bit of road grime,but not much the way my fender is installed. Just wipe it off and it looks ok. Wipe it down with shoe polish every once in a while.
Good Luck

Looks nice. What's the emblem on your battery box?

Removed the factory trim, filled the holes w/black allen bolts and used a Screamin' Eage medallion in the center.

I really like the look also and although rain is not an issue here in TX, I'm thinking that everything else on the road (rocks/oil/roadkill) might end up in my face, or at the very least, all over the front of the bike. Any experience with that being the case?
THANKS!

Well, as luck would have it, I rode my bike to work for one day w/o the fender and it was raining like a cow pissin' on a flat rock when I got off. Surprisingly it was not much wetter than normal, the grooves in the tire seem to retain a lot of the water and cascade it out the front kinda like a reverse roostertail on a boat.
Back in the sixtys and seventies none of us ran front fenders and didn't get killed by rocks,course we were running a big rake and ridiculous over length tubes, like fourteen or sixteen over. That could have had something to do with it.
I'm still alive but I don't know why.
Good Luck
