Just got back from heartland's web site. I answered my own question. If I didn't want interference with the side mount, I would have to go with the heartlander 11" x 28" with the frenched in plate housing. A man just cant have it all can he?

Here's a couple pics I took of a Rocker done with that imbedded plate, in case you'd like to see how it looks:

Thanks austinharley. Now I'm wondering if it would look ok if you tapered the bottom like the stock fender.

The bike has the Arnott Air Ride Suspension. It is raised up about 50% without a load at the setting in the pic. When you sit on it, it lowers to a comfortable ride. You can actually lower the fender down to the wheel with 1/2" clearance. I should have taken the pics in the low position, just did not think about it at the time.

Good deal. Looks great. That's the coolest skull I've seen. The fender looks like its the skull's hood.
