You did a great job designing on that bike. Did it require any modification to install the RK rear fender? I have to replace my FL fender and am looking for what to use.

Default RK Fender mods on the Sporty
Mounting holes were drilled where original fender mounting holes are on struts.
front area on fender was chopped off to accommodate original rubber/plastic mudguard(?). No other mods
