Deluxe Front Fender Ideas
 
I am looking for ideas for the front fender on my 09 Deluxe to give it a more nostalgic look. The HD catalog is kind of limited. If you have pics that would be great.

I say keep the fender and put a 21 inch front wheel. I think that look is tits.

Absolutely...this is a very classy look.

21" looks clean under that fender

Thanks for the ideas folks. The cabbage is a unique idea. The 21" wheel would look kick ass.

For a nostalgic look I dont think you want the 21". It depends on where your from I guess but I dont recall seeing and old FL's running around with 21" front wheels. On a fenderless bobber, yes.
As far as the cabbage cutter, I think this is closer to the nostalgic look.
You can also go with the fender rail if you like that. I like that look but others probably dont.

What do you like?

The thingy on the front and rear of viking66's bike.
Here is a vintage one from ebay. Little rusty but you get the idea.
