    They do look better, but the cost is a bit more then I want to spend. Thanks for the link, though!

This mounting would stabilize the fender from vibrating and from the inevitable "park your butt on the tire/fender while visiting" scenario. (You know it's going to happen ).

    Nice build!!!
    Yep, that's what I think I'm going to do. TSC has plain jane stamped fenders for $40 each. And you're right about the butt/tire thing. That is guaranteed to happen.

    Hi guys, been busy. I would like to give an update though, because I'd like to help other guys doing this same project using the DNA Trike Axel on a 1994 Harley Softail. Here's how I ended up running the brake lines:

    As I've said, I would have much rather had Cokers but the total cost for the wheels, tires, and fakies were less than what one wheel would have been with a Coker. And yes, those tires were mounted by hand, as well as the fakies.

    And, last but not least, here is the raked stance. I absolutely love it. It looks mean.

    Here's what I've been up to yesterday and today. The brake lights are Model T style and turn signals are original to the bike. Held in place with construction adhesive. Still gotta wire it but looks cool.

    most fenders, more for water spray, some Debri, most rear fenders on sports, start at top of tire.

    tractor trailers, have to be within 8" of ground. I've seen the tractors only have flaps.

    fenders to keep you from touching moving tires, would seem important, all belts needed gaurds, for passenger safety of there feet.

    a set of low pro, tire hugging fenders, painted black, hard to see from far away, they won't hurt you re look. can't even see my front fender Click image for larger version.

    I love that red trike, you don't see those every day. Did you build it? I don't know if I've ever seen one quite like it.

    I'm currently fabricating fenders using the metal from my old oil furnace. I'm a little worried about the 8" from the ground thing though, I took my cues from the fenders on the trailers at Tractor Supply. I have a lot of work into them already, I think I'll roll the dice. If they don't pass they're easily removable and I'll just make another set.

    Here's one of the fenders I'm working on. I can't imagine the guy who inspects it will look at it and say, "Nope, not good enough". Maybe I should mount an axe handle to the frame to encourage cooperation.

    Man, the more I look at that red machine the more I like it. The 80's Corvette wheels, the insane rake that seems to defy physics. Do you have a build thread or more pics of it anywhere? What engine is on it?
