Chrome Splash Guard Help
I'm looking to replace the OEM black plastic rear wheel splash guard with a chrome one. This is the one that sits in front of the rear wheel, not the one that the license plate is mounted to. I have an '07 Deuce. Anyone know of a direct bolt on? Thanks

It is merely a rectangular sheet of metal. I bought the version from HD. It was pre drilled for the included metal bolts. Some have had diamond metal sheets cut to size.
Either way, it is a good and easy DIY modification. Shows more space around the rear wheel and gets rid of the cheeze plastic.

You guys that are considering fabbing up your own.Be aware that the piece has a slight radius in it,so you can't use material that is too stiff.You need to be able to bend it somewhat.

Chillman - Thanks for this thread. Actually, I have been watching that one also. I'm waiting for someone to give a template or the needed measurements. I plan on using .125" aluminum polished diamond plate which can be bent the bit that I will need to be shaped.

Yep, as noted above, I installed this a few days ago. I'm very happy with it. No need to take off the rear wheel. Just need to put the bike on a lift, and I cut a hex wrench down to be able to work in the narrow space. It took a little longer, but I didn't have to worry about readjusting the belt, etc. Take a look at the pics on my thread noted above.
