I gotta say fender because it matches the clean and smoothed look of the wheels and the overall bike.

Nice looking scoot.

I see this pole going one way. Those that have no fender, telling you they like it without and those with a fender telling you it's better with it on.

Then you'll have the small minority of people who have taken it off only to put it back on or those with one on wanting to take it off...

Really, it's up to you. Personal preference. Personally, I like it on and I like not having water thrown in my face if I run through some standing water.

Few things uglier to me than a missing front fender. Just looks cheap. Only exception is more novelty bike set ups with custom forks and oversized tires, etc.

I agree that the no fender look does make some bikes look better. But on your bike I'd say keep the fender.

I agree w Kirk...

If you had a ton of rake to keep the debris away from you and the bike, maybe... but imo the no fender thing when the front wheel is close usually means sand and water in your face and all over the bike and engine.

Altho ur stock fender is small, its keeping you and the bike clean.
