rotating rear fender advice?
i turned it on the belt sander to get a smooth flow out of it, it is just cause it is a close up. to keep the shape of the top of the fender flowing smooth it is the only way to wrap it on a stock fender and still keep enough meat back there so it will catch crap thrown... when you look at it about 2 foot away you can not even tell and it flows well with the rest of the bike... just the close up pics look wack... after i saw that i went out and checked it again... it is way better than when i first did it... dropped the belt down to a less agreesive grit so that i could slowly shape it and keep both sides matching! adding to the fender then grinding it down would never have it match on stamped steel

off topic, but I really like that taillight set-up... where did you find such a sweet piece?
it is from Dr v twin a sponser on here... i tore it down, cut it up, powdered it, addes some more led's and installed it
last season i buttoned up the stock hole for a tail light and then put this over it... this year i did the fender mod
