Default What have you done with your front fender

I'm wanting to do something with the front fender of my Road King. I don't care for the chrome trim and the light.

Also the fender seems to have an excessive amount of crearance.

I'm thinking about putting a Street Glide front fender on it and that will get rid of all the trim. but I still want a tighter fit.

lets see what you have done.

I think it looks right on your bike but I don't care for it on my flht. I'm doing a SG front.

Smoke lenses on teh fender light and turn sigs and a chrome skirt will completly change the look. Thats what I did on my FLHT, went from drab to fab for less than $100. Oh, the chrome fork lowers help too.

You could get a street glide front fender for it, or take off all "the stuff" that's on the fender, along with those reflectors on your lower legs.

Fat boy fender is easy swap- also the HD "Street Stalker" fender if you can find one.

adapter blocks for the fat boy fender are numerous and easy to find.

I didn't like the orange running light on the fender so covered that with a fender tip. Also didn't care the standard turn signals so changed them all out for the Harley Bullet set, love the look now.

If you want a new from fender, have a look at this seller, great prices :-)

I have a Street Glide, I really like the clean look of it but the rivets in all the Harley fenders drive me nuts. Looks like crap.

I want to get a bracket that removes and lowers the stock fender mounting points, it welds back on so it removes the rivets as well. You are finished with no rivets and a lower fender to the tire without changing how the bike handles.

I didn't like the lower fender skirt on my RK and didn't want a chrome one either, so I painted it to match the fender. Used HD spray touch-up and clear, turned out well and is holding up to the elements.
