Default I hate waiting for parts - new front
Well, as usual parts are slowly trickling in. Still waiting on spacers (you can see they are missing in the pics) so I can finish drilling and trimming the new fender, but I had to get it mounted today. New 21" wheel and tire, removed the 19", just didn't go with the new fender.
Once I can finish trimming to match the spacers, off the fenders go for paint.

Anyone know of a HMA (Harley Modders Anonymous) chapter?

Thx
Man, how I wish you had left the fuel line connector in the bottom of the tank...lol That is one tough part to get, been waiting since I got your tank. Still have lots to do, but should have everything finished by the end of the month.

I like it Rich. Looks good. Are you going to trim it, like in the area of where the fender bolts up to the lowers?

Hey Vic, yes, just need the spacers to mark it up and trim. These are the spacers, and I want to cut the hole out as well.

I hope so...lol
I have a spare set of lowers that I am probably going to polish, but that is for another day.
The new tins will be gloss black for now, and once the OL gets her airbrush setup in her studio we'll add some artwork, just don't know what yet.

Back to stock 90x21, but with a Metzeler ME880, it won't track grooves like the Dunlop, Just took it out for a test ride with the new wheel and tire, no fender, remember now why I have a fender...lol... Damn road/snow sanding....
