    Just looking at the front fender on my 79 fxs lowrider and think that the rods that secure the fender to the forks are ugly. Just seeing if anyone has played around with them to make them more simple like a wide glide fender?

    Also how rare is this kind of bike these days? Should i be modding it or is it a bike worth restoring to stock form one day?

    Ah yeah, might have a play around with 'the mudguard' haha and see what i can come up. Then again i have too much time on me hands at the moment and am looking at springer front ends even tho it will probably never happen! haha Yeah the fxwg is a better look without doubt!
