| I had my fender replaced in june under warranty as it was cracked. The first week in sept. when lookingat the fender I noticed the the replacement had started to crack in the same area. Posted my concerns on the victory Facebook site. Today I received a call from Jason at Victory and we talked for about 20 minutes ending on him telling me to take the bike back to the dealer. Hope this ends up being resolved. He did say that if the people with fender problems do not take thier bike back to the dealer and just post about it they meaning victory would not know about it so take your bikes back to the dealer to start the process of getting your fender replaced. |

Rancho Cucamonga, CA | My Vic dealer didn't care that I had gone thru 2 fenders already. I dought they will even tell Ma Vic since I opted to buy a fiberglass replacement fender. So, now I can only hope they take the Facebook posts seriously. |

| New fender ordered covered by warranty this time they are going to place a small rubber washer in between the fork leg and the fender hoping to absorb the vibration. |

Vineland, NJ United States | Here is pic of my broken fender. I had dealer install new one and use rubber washer and Loctite on screw so it won't back out. Hopefully this one will last longer than 25,000 miles. Total cost was $165.00

Mechanicsville, VA United States | Ok, I when back and looked, you're right $185 HDM-07 un-painted and that's cool....but $150 to paint it is way out of the question...$335 for a half of a fender.
I think I will order it un-painted....it's only $98 more than the OEM one from Victory but maybe it will last. One rattle can of flat black should do the job. Thanks! |
