I noticed that IMC doesn't recommend a installing the front mud flap on the Chieftain. I know the fork angle is different but does it hit the highway bar or something? Anybody tried one on a Chieftain?
I saw a pic with one on a chieftan I am going to try as soon as I can find oneI noticed that IMC doesn't recommend a installing the front mud flap on the Chieftain. I know the fork angle is different but does it hit the highway bar or something? Anybody tried one on a Chieftain?
I have the leather fender flap without the fringe and it does just fine.Chieftian
Any chance you could post a picture of your Chieftain with the fringed mudflaps. I've been thinking about buying them but have been unable to see what they look like on the bike.Have both front and rear on my Chieftain with fringe. No issues.
Any update from someone who installed the front mudflap? Did it bottom out on speed bumps or potholes?With rake on the Chieftain the flap could in a deep hole or speed bump hit the bike as it rises not a real big deal, but it will rip the bolts out of the fender in the worst case. Just take a good look at it and you will see how.
What dealership you using?I am just running the rear flap with fringe on my Chieftain, think I will wait awhile to see how running a front flap with fringe works out for others.
The people at my dealership said Indian doesn't recommend a front flap with fringe, but one without fringe up front should be okay.
