Here's a pic.Dgyver and Starwalt have both seen my bike in person.Me no understando.


I know the back tire looks like it's sitting left.I've measured it and it centered.Checked the swing arma and it's straight.Looking at it in person it's straight.Must be my shatty cam phone or the photograhper.
PICS are GONE never TO return.

Brilliant Idea....Pictures please.

I plan on using my old inner fender panel to create a hugger as well.


Damn!I been keeping this under my hat.I got an old inner wheel well from a wrecked GS.I was planning to make a hugger out of it.

Sorry, didn't mean to let the cat out of the bag. Basically the only reason I'd use the rear inner fender off mine is because it's free.

I think he meant to fit his idea of using a modern cruiser front fender, you'd have to put back on a skinnier tire in the rear than you have mounted.

Have you learned the lessons only of those who admired you, and were tender with you, and stood aside for you? Have you not learned great lessons from those who braced themselves against you, and disputed passage with you?

Im thinking on using the bottom of a rubbermaid tub since I can find any sheet plastic for my rear fender. What do yall think?

Using some standard fender as a base for a hugger - easy, straightforward and always in plain sight...
Why the heck didn't i think of that  :dunno_white:
Now lets see some pics ;)

I'm working on it today. I didn't mean the bottom of a rubbermaid tub, I ment the side. I went to wal-mart and bought a 13 gallon trash can for $12.50, made a template, and hacked up the can with a dremel( great invention). I WILL make this happen with no metal fab work minus a reciprocating saw. I also WILL post pics when I'm done. As for the brake light, turn signals, and license plate bracket...I'm just gonna cut that part of the old rear fender off and stick it right back on until I can figure something better out.
