heres mine...Ive since made a new sheetmetal back plate out of 1/8" steel. The one in the photos actually snapped off at the tail light after 6 years of bouncing I guess. Swung the tail light right into the chain and I damn near cut the tail light in half with the chain...haha

I bought mine cause I'm lazy. It was from british customs. Pretty decent quality, already powdercoated and all. The actually arm that mounts to the axle could of been a bit stronger IMO.

What is that front fender you have? Looking for something smaller like that to replace the large new one on the 2012 model...
Cheers, Mike
