I have been shopping around for a new fender for my 08 custom. I am wanting a shorter bobber type fender but want one to be able to keep my detachable sissy bar. I found this bike on the forum but can't finally any info on it, and the owner hasn't logged in for awhile. So any help would be greatly appreciated.
It has struts, that's how's it's bolted to the frame. The struts are just welded to the fender as one assembly. I had one and it it held a passenger fine. Your stk had detachable sissy bar will not work because the struts have a radius vrs straight like a stk fender and struts. To make them work you would have to drill new holes that line up with the detachable brackets and install the hardware you already have providing that they clear the tire on the inside of the tire. I just cut new brackets to fit the contour, made a new bar to my liking to where I can always leave it on there.
Thanks for the info. Chrome. I went through your photobucket pics. Your bike looks good. That rear fender is exactly what I'm looking for. What brand is it, if you don't mind me asking. Also i's that a badlander seat you had on it, In the last couple pics?

That's some old pics and honestly I don't remember the brand. The struts were welded to it, but I eventually cut the fender from the struts, bought a rear fender blank and bolted the fender to the struts. When I bolted it I lowered the fender in the struts a little more to give it a lower look to it. The seat is a bad lander that I had to remold to fit the fender cause no seat is made specific for that fender. Only thing is I had to cut the rear frame horns off cause it being an '06 they don't unbolt like the newer models.
