Hello all, some time ago, someone posted that another manufacturer (Honda, yamaha,etc) front fender bolted up to an America. Does anyone remember what make and model? I am thinking it is the Honda shadow but wanted to make sure. I would like to get a steel one on the front.
Thanks

I remember that, but can't locate it with search.
It was the bulky looking aero/ace/sabre one.
Makes you wonder if any shadow fender would work.
Dunno if they're tin or not.
Looks like there are accys available for the big ones:

Not that I'm aware of. Someone did install fender trim from I believe a Honda Ace or Shadow.




Yep, but they had to install a Honda Ace front fender too.

Jack, this is the fender...it is plastic.



I got mine from a member here and it does need some modification:
Mounting holes in bracket need to be enlarged. Fender will sit kind of high over tire so I cut the bottom of the bracket off about 3/4 inch and drilled new holes to line up with fork legs.
No.....I don't have it finished yet.....up till now it's been too darn hot to work out in the garage after work.
I'll get on it though and post some pics.

My 1999 Honda Shadow's front fender was not steel, it was plastic.
