Default Strutless fender

Has anyone used one of these fenders from kustom werks or kraft tech? I just put a 200 tire on my 05 softail and I like this fender but cant find a picture of it on a bike anywhere. Was curious if I needed to cut some off cause its pretty long.

I put one on my wife's 93. It is solid, but kind of high off the tire. Her bike is super low too. I had to chop it hard to get it to look right. She likes it, but I am not so sure. Looking for which of those two brands mentioned it was now.

Hers is Milwaukee Iron. I looked at the picture you posted and it is different at the mount area, so you might be better off. I don't recommend the Milwaukee Iron fenders, but they are mighty strong. Sorry to raise yer blood pressure for no reason!
Picture anyway....

Im actually looking at the kustom werks but I think they use kraft tech struts. I also want to know how much room I will have between the fender and the tire after lowering the bike 2".

I also put a milwaukee on mine and its high quality, pretty much same as kraft tech or kustom werks. Only prob I had is that you have to slam the bike to get the fender to tire space down. Dont get me wrong I love my bike slammed but when im ridn in D.C. those streets are fu<ked up and I bottom out. But I cut the fender out of the struts and dropped a fender blank in between them, that way I could lower the fender down to the tire and take up some of the space and still be able to raise up the bike.

I have the Kustom Werks strutless on my Bones. I like it, I am going to lower the Bones to take up the space between the tire. Hopefully soon work has been a bitch. The fender is built solid and is of good quality. Check out my pics. Hope this helps
