Replacing frame struts.
I had my frame struts cut off so I could do a swing arm mounted fender. My wife has never wanted to ride with me till recently so I was thinking I could buy some bolt on struts so I can use my old stock fender and 2 up seat. I am having a hard time finding bolt on struts that are strong enough for a second rider along with the correct size to fit the stock 200 tire

I don't need any lights or electrical to run threw the fender. Only thing I am still thinking up Is a rock guard. I am sure it won't be hard to fab up a rock guard that stays mounted with either fender bolted up
Tried to find a pic but can't, I got ahold of a rocker C two up setup. The detachable seat struts bolt straight up to the trains holes for the original strut covers. Just need to make up some blocks to go between the struts and frame as the rockers are a wider frame

I cut my frame horns off my 2002 Fat Boy also. Could you post a picture of your bike? You could use a Heartland kit.

I have the stock fender and seat so I wanted to be able to swap out fenders to put a second seat on for my wife to ride. Bolt on struts should give me that ability
