Default Cross Bones Rear Fender Conversion Kit
I am looking at adding the Cross Bones Conversion Kit from Shadetree Fabrications to my 08 bones. I was wondering if anyone else has used this kit and how easy was it to put on. Does anyone know of any other rear fender kits out there that will go on without cutting the inner struts off.
