I have a 2007 Road King. I have a 21 " fat spoke and recently installed a klockwerk hugger fender. I was told no modifications would be needed and that it would fit without any issues. Well the truth is, after just my first day ride, I hit a very small rut in the road which bottomed out my front end leaving a nice quarter size chip/ding on the top of the fender from it hitting the engine guard/crash bar. I recently had my fork oil changed and upgraded to a thicker grade. My bike sports the white gold pearl paint which wasn't cheap so to find this chip after just one run you can imagine just how pissed off I am. I'm at a loss on what to do.. Any suggestions would be appreciated.....

 

More fork spring preload sounds like the solution to me.

 

Go back to 16" wheel. You lost 2.5" of space. That's why it was there.
Or like mentioned above stiffen the fork preload. But your ride will suffer.

 

I love the look too much. I don't mind a little rougher of a ride. I'm more of a slow and steady driver... Definitely going to look into upgrading the fork springs. Ive been told Harley oem suspensions aren't the greatest. Thanks guys for your input... much appreciated..

 

I just put a bad dad full wrap on my sgs with no issues. Is the rake that much different on a rk? I did however get a spacer ( for lack of a better word) from bad dad to mount it. It is a 21" tire also. I have a friend who rides a 07 sg with a 21" tire with the big ol stock fender without issue, and his is in the factory mounting holes.
