Question Nightster Fender Replacement?

Since I have relocated my ECM underneath my spring solo seat, I am looking at replacing the stock Nightster fender to a similiar one with no ECM hole... Which Fender would be best to use?

Re: Nightster Fender Replacement?

Have you considered removing the fender and taking it to a body shop to patch up the hole and re-paint it . A good shop could do it with a minimum amount of bondo.
Why waste a good fender.

A new seat kit, and ALOT of patience
It is definitely worth it in the end though

Re: Nightster Fender Replacement?

And it comes with a place to relocate your computer and hide all the wires below the seat?

No kit comes with that, that I know of anyway...
I just relocated it under the seat, the springs are very strong, and won't hit or rub the ECM at all, at least they didn't for me, I'm about 170-175
