Is anyone making custom fenders for a Frankenstein conversion? Looking for something different, perhaps just a partial fender instead of a complete coverage on a conversion that I will be doing this winter.

Alvin, finally getting around to it ???
Remember, the larger and heavier fenders require more unsightly bracing and the more unique the fender, the more costly if you ever have one damaged.
Look here for some ideas:

I too want something smaller for mine. I have Frankenstein's wide tire set up and my fenders are way to big. I was thinking of buying just 1 fender from them and cutting it in half, but then it leaves that big bracket. I just don't like how low the fenders ride on the bracket mine cover the top half of the tires. As for now, I'm ridding without the fenders. My buddies said if I got caught in the rain I would be sorry, but I'm no it's anyone behind me that's sorry. If you find anything please post back here. I think you and I are looking for the same thing.
I took 4 softail fenders that had no taillight in the end of it, split the fenders and widened them sufficiently to accept the 20 inch Harley pickup wheels i had on the trike, then i put a tube welded to the front bottom of fender to make a pivot point, soooo, unbolt fender from backside of fender bracket and tilt fender to pull wheel, had sport bike calipers and rotors that hung down, on the bottom, dont forget to put them back top to bleed them down, i did. No pics that pc crashed and has not been resurrected. Yet. :cool: .
