RE: Front Fender Splash Guard - Wagonpeddler_imp - 02-21-2022
Necessary to remove the front fender to attach the splash guard?

I don't know how others did it, but I removed the fender which made it so much easier to work on.

I think it can be done without removing it, but, like Rocky, I removed mine for the install.

... of course now that you have the front fender extender, you can now do more wet riding.

I've had one on all my bikes but have always thought they should be a little longer. I did modify a longer scooter back guard to fit a Yamaha Bulldog and it was perfect at keeping the engine clean.
RE: Front Fender Splash Guard - GoldOxide_imp - 02-26-2022
With over five decades of mostly beautiful manufacturer inline-4 design, if keeping the lump and pipes clean was important to the operation of the machine, they would have thought of something more generic up to help owners (not including full fairing tourers). That maybe would have included extending the front fender - as some members do like in this thread. So why wouldn't the manufacturers? To save metal cost? To save plastic fender cost? Is there a more practical or technical operational explanation?

Modern motorcycle mudguards(fenders) IMO are clearly designed by people who don't ride motorcycles LOL
I think sad but true

The best guards are on scooters and GoldWings. Ah heck, Indian motorcycles too.
