Summer Switch-Up
here's a guy i know in philly, got a fat boy front fender, chopped the **** out of it and it looks dope! as you can see, he's only using that rear fender mount tab under the seat. it can be done if you want to....sounds like you'd like to but got frustrated with the mounting. no?

it can be done. stop your bitchin and get that grinder out (lol). got nothing to do with how expensive your "chopper" is bro. that thing sits way too high for the tire you're running back there. it could look like this...damn near same fender you got!
do i need to drive down there? lol. dude no disrespect bro, you know that! but, you can get it lower if you really "want" to. this **** looks proper dont it? i'm ready to buy one of these fenders and go to town just to show you it can be done brutha.

That bike is so slick. Thing about that rear fender is if you notice it's REALLY close to the rear tire. So I'll guess those shocks have little to no travel in them. Have to remember SF still needs room for shock travel. I think SF's setup looks fine.
On a less related note....anyone else notice mreed hasn't posted in the last couple months?
you guys actually watch for certain peeps to post and if they don't you get worried? that's fvcken funny. the closeness of the fender to the tire is not what i was referring to, i was referring to how much more was chopped off the fender that's all. i give up...

SF, I know my opinion isn't worth spit to ya, BUT, yes, please cut more off of the fender. No matter how many times I look at it, I keep picturing Donald Duck's mouth. Sorry man.
i mean...it all depends on how you were envisioning it. if this is how you wanted it to look from the jump then i'd say no. if it were me and i was going for that "CO" look...i'd have a lot more choppin' to do. i really like how that dudes bike looks that i posted (the maroon 48). i saw it in person and he did a great job with that fender. i really might do this in the winter, i'm sure i can find a take off @ the shop.
