Don't really understand what your talking about, if the skirt on the bottom of the front fender is anywhere close to the frame you got major problems I'd say. Pics would really help.

I think you need to provide a lot more info. You talk "the" accident, what happened, what was the damage? Are the parts you put on from the exact same model/year? Where is the contact actually occurring?

Some pictures would be very beneficial. Lots of great help on the forum here but need more information.

Welcome!!!

2002 Electra Glide. Thank you guys. I figure out my forks were bent. I bought set of forks on ebay, installed it and now everything looks perfect. Thank you.

This guy is a fraud . It was a 2006 Electra glide . Was in a front end collision . I'm the unfortunate sucker that bought the bike from him . The frame and forks are still bent from his accident. It is so bent the downtubes are touching the front exhaust pipe and the rocker box is dented . they put the used forks on ad pilled them to get the fender out of the frame. which in process pent the forks he just put on it . now do you see Why he doesent post more info on his "accident" guess he didnt think of anyone fighting back It's ok though . I have already printed the page and given it to the attorney . He didn't think I'd find it but has deleted his original post

Ok guys check out the video . Look at the rear brake pedal up against the exhaust. Also notice how the forks are standing almost straight . They should be raked out more
