I run a SS one on the front. Decided on how much I wanted to extend the stock one, made a cardboard template and had a sheetmetal shop make one for me. it's pretty long, maybe only 4" above the road but works well.

Check out this web site. I had one made for the front fender of my Street Glide, and liked it so much I had him make mud flaps for my trike.
They are very well made, and attach with industrial grade Velcro.
The one my my Street Glide was still holding strong when I traded it in after 5 years. I removed it and gave it to my brother who installed it on his bike 2 years ago.
Just email him and tell him what bike you have, and he will get right back to you.
Very honest guy, and great service at a reasonable price.

I made one from some belting from macs hardware. Used some construction paper to make a pattern, and drilled holes for mounting. Using small bolts and acorn nuts it looks like it could be factory. This was a must do with my gravel road and the oil cooler on my 12.
One thing to consider here is the air flow from the front tire to anything it may have cooled. There won't be near the air movement.
What I have been thinking about is making the flap into a fringe so it will bend & go back a ways to deflect the debris & still let a bit more wind to cool with. Also flexible for curbs.
There are leather ones that do just that. I'm just cheap !
