Front mudflap

Looking for some input about installing a front mudflap, i live on a dirt road and dont want to beat the hell out of it with rocks, sand, and mud. Is there a good bad or other mudflap to put on it and is there any issues with the air flow to the cooler . thanks ken

Front Mudflap

I purchased a rear mudflap for a Roadking....it comes with an internal bracket. You remove the front skirt bend your bracket to the shape of the skirt. The bracket has mounting holes in it....mark and drill the skirt for the bracket holes. Remount the skirt and attach the bracket and mudflap to the skirt with the mounting screws that come with the kit. You will need to pay attention and set the top of the flap as close as possible to the bottom edge of the fender as possible. WALLA you now have a front mudflap. I did this on my '03 RDking it was on there for 5+ years and worked perfectly. As soon as I got my Trike I did the same thing. You need to make sure the rear mudflap you purchase is the same width as your front fender.....I beleive the 10's rear is wider than they used to be, but the front hasn't changed. I purchased a rear mudflap for a '03 and it worked fine.....Good Luck. By the way the clearance between the tire and fender on the trike is real close so if you have large hands it's a tight squeeze.
