I've said it before, I really dig these fenders! Sets the bike apart, they're swoopy!

Great looking crew too! :mrgreen:

Hey Skipton,

Looking good! You're right, I could barely see the struts and I liked it. :)

I bet your "fabricators" are having a good time helping Dad.
They'll be ready for the next generation.

Are your going to leave the white-thinner tires are are you going to try to stuff something bigger in?

Looking forward to more!

You will need to use your imagination on this mock up... but I think in the end this rear fender with the same profile as the front will look best.

MplsCoaster Thanks!

Yes the "fabricators" are really getting into helping with this bike :D

I do like the white tires and think when I clean them up they will look great. I do have a different slightly larger wheel and tire combo
that I have been considering giving a try.......stay tuned :wink:

Ratina, Thanks! I was hoping to get the tan fenders stripped this week but have run out of time they will look so much
better when that weird heavy coat of tan is off :roll:........ let alone painted the same color as the front fender :wink:

Thanks again for all the comments and looking at my build!
