Rear fender clearance

[haute pursuit]

Does anyone know what the minimum rear fender clearance should be on a Freewheeler?

It's not something that MoCo has published that I am aware of.

I'm having new fenders made with a bracket to mount to the existing fender mounts on the trunk... just trying to figure out the spacing between the fender and wheels. The less space the better as far as the look.

No published figures, IMO if u can get a hand between the tire and fender u r OK, this is 1 of the reasons 4 rear {poor air} shocks

That's about what I was thinking. Thank you sir!

I'm betting that the OEM fenders have a bit of room to spare but are pretty close to what you will need.

Anyway, once your fenders are on please post some pictures!

I'm betting when your done, you can sell your OEM fenders for a few $$$ .... when I had my tri, I always wanted to get a pair of FW fenders and try to make them work. I just thought the bobbed fenders looked good.

Yes sir. I 'm going to have a bunch of stuff left over to get rid of in a couple more weeks. If you are interested in the fenders, I'll make you a great deal on them.

I haven't even thought about taking pictures of the progress. I'm waiting on a part that had to be made on the front end to come in and be powder coated. I'm hoping by the end of next week that it will be rolling again. I need to get it all put together and put some miles on it to make sure I am happy with everything we've done before I get the fenders made... then it gets torn down again for paint. I'll get some pics taken when I get it rolling. It is going to look a whole lot different from what Harley envisioned.

If you make it look like your avatar, you'd have a kewl sleeper.

I won't need the fenders, the trustee took my tri in the bankruptcy ... but that is in the past ...

It will look like that but hotter!

Sorry about the Tri.

When u put on new fenders put some rubber welting in between fenders and body, The MOCO should have done this, be careful ur bolts are not cross threaded like mine were, My Bike was NEVER PDI, my RS spark lugs were loose, plus RS turn signal fell off GEEEEEZ
