Default Fenders????

I am looking at switching out my fenders. Does anyone know if fenders off a street glide or road king will fit on a fatboy? Or where can i get some after market fenders that just go further down on the back side of the tires? Thanks in advance!!!!

I useda Heritage front fender(same as the R/K and S/G),but will fit a Fatboy without mods.I cut the mounting bracket off and lowered it closer to the tire by drilling thru the sides of the fender.

On the rear I had my stock fender extended by 4"

Nice looking fenders!

I put a fatboy fender on my wide glide front end. I think you shouldn't have any problem

When you say extended, how is this done. Can you buy them already extended?

NICE BIKE!!! Man, your bike is so low, it looks like the lawn is eating the bike! Looks very good.

Go to Harley and look at the bikes they have. I could have sworn the front and rear fender mounted differently. The rear on a RK vs. FB is different so there may be some differences as far as a straight bolt on. Then again, if you're gonna have them painted you can have them modified to fit.

Thanks for the pics. This is exactly what I have in mind. Did you just weld in another 4 inches?

Not really sure of the exact process involved.I had two fenders and was going to try to do it myself by cutting a piece out of one and welding it into the other,but I just don't have that kind of welding skills.I just turned it over to my painter.Any good paint shop could probably do it.I know Klock Werks or Bad Dad both do it also.I used a local guy here in So Cal,but he took forever.The front fender was easy,I even managed to shave and fill all the rivets and extra holes myself.Just took a little patience
