touring fender on softail
Does anyone know how much work would go into making a touring front fender fit a fatboy? In my search for a new front fender have found a lot of touring fenders at good prices but the heritage fenders seem to get more, and the deluxe even more than a heritage. I know they make a adapter to use FB on a RK but not sure if I could make it work for the other way. I may go aftermarket but trying to figure out all of my options first. If anyone has other ideas or companies that they have worked with let me know too. I do not want a cheap fender that needs a lot of prep work. Thanks

You can put a softail FL front fender on a touring bike with the use of adapters. You cannot put a touring fender on a softail FL because the touring fender mounts would be to wide. The touring front end is wider than the FL softail front end.

Front fender for 1996 FLSTN
Hello and good morning! I'm new to the group and looking for a front fender for a 1996 Softail FLSTN. Would a front fender bolt right on from other years? It seems to be a bit of a challenge finding one that's from a 1996. Thank you for any help in advance!

Front fender is the same from 1990-1996 them slight style change but will still fit (bolt on no modification) 1997-2006. So basically anything 1990-2006 will bolt on and fit.
