I wanted to keep the short fender when I installed the larger/wider(120-90) front tire, so I drilled and tapped some metal bracing and ground the excess. Pefect fit. Now I'm going to spraypaint the mount black or the same color blue as the bike......Angelis

Those brackets looks really good. I think black would be the best color for them to kind of hide them (like the stock bracket).

They look pretty good as is. Black would be good, too. Might look kinda chunky if they were blue.

would have a nice raw look if you covered those brackets in Gun-Blue ink.

Thanks, Ray. Where's your Union Jack? That was cool on Angelis spoiler. Hey Angelis how's that beeefy tire treating the speedo? Might it be a bit closer to accurate?
