Just wondering if anyone has bobbed a Blackline/Slim fender. Trying to make heads or tails on what I want to do with the rear fender. I don't like it. I really like the Lucky F*cker rear fender, but since I ride my wife quite a bit I don't want to go that route. Looking for some idea's to clean that half-assed "shortened" fender up.

 

Cricket cricket... Damn, no one huh?

 

I think it's because a lot of people, me included, happen to like the "half-assed" stock fender. (Which is already bobbed, but not to the extreme.)

Goes well with the bike, and prevents you from getting a skunk stripe up your back if you get caught on a muddy road.

That said, if you no likey, maybe the Heartland kit, or the RSD kit?

 

Roland sands tracker is relatively inexpensive

 

get rid of the fenders like I did.. :-)

I had my front fender off for a lil while when i installed my forks... then i rode in the rain and drank street water the whole ride then unfortunately i had to put it back on lol.


Check out the softail slim thread therse a couple guys that bobbed the stock fender on a stock sized tire. gogoog

 

I would also check with RSD fender, not expensive and good looking

 

I get the "skunk stripe" thing. I ride through the rain every year... I just ride my bike on dry roads more than I do on muddy ones (I'm in AZ) so not a deal breaker for me. I did check out the RSD and it's kinda humped up and has a weird shape to it. I would like the stock fender alot more I think if it was just more radiused instead of the old trailer fender look with the hard corners on it.

lol nice. I like to throw the wife on back and take off sometimes so gotta have some fender. Not to mention I ride to work daily on it so I need that fender and sissybar to strap **** to it.

Come monsoon season I put my front fender on, at least Monday - Friday... and that old bandana trick don't work worth a sh*t. Yeah suckin on street water does suck.

I'll have to thumb through that thread and see if I can find some then.



Thanks for the replies everyone.

 

Like what you did, very City canyon type bike
