Thats the problem with this world!  Not enough holes! Just think how much better a place this world  would be if each and everyone on this planet took just one moment today to drill or dig a hole!

Still gotta cut those two horns. But what will hold the stoplight? So many things to cut, so little time...  Cheesy

Dasch, I've always liked the lines of your bike. How did you do the fender so it doesn't bottom out? I like the idea of having a close hugging fender but don't wanna do struts.

Looks like the fender is mounted to the swingarm rather than the frame.

Only attached to the swing arm by the one connector on each side?

If you look very closely I think there is a bolt going through the crossmember of the swingarm. I'm sure that's a 3rd mounting point.

You know you're right, I can see a bolt on top of it. Same way BCB has theirs.

Hahahaha. You know what - it does!

An yes, theres a hand made L-shaped bracket connecting crossmember and the fender, and then the U mount from one side to the other. If you get the same idea - make the L shaped bracket going all the way to the rear end of the fender, lengthwise. That will make it sturdier. That's what I'm going to do next. After the seat, of course  Grin
