Default 21 inch front wheel fender options

Im bolting up a set of touring fork legs to my 07 softail and will be running a 21x3.5 front wheel with a 120 tire. For those of you that have changed to a 21 front wheel on your TC touring bikes did you find any custom front fenders? Thanks Pete

I bought one like this off ebay and found it to be thick metal. Thick enough to cut and shape it anyway you want too. I had it painted and no regrets.

I know you said a 120, but on a touring bike, I would recommend a 130-60/21...

Many have gone with the wrap fender, but I used my OEM fender when I went with the 21" wheel on my King. I elongated the fender mounting holes a tad to allow clearance for the bigger tire and maintain the "old school" look.

Did you put a fender riser on? That bracket that is sold for 21 inch tire clearance. Not needed. Or, did you lower the front end? Did you put a thicker fork oil in the forks?
