I actually purchased the front defender bumper as well but decided I didn't like the look of the way it sticks out kindf of squared in front so it is on my shelf.
The rear one I did in fact have to do quite a bit of fabrication to make work but it is a working bumper and not just decorative.
Ted's shifter is great but I didn't like the plain straight black rod linkage so I had a new linkage rod fabricated. Now it looks much nicer. You can see it in this picture. If you like it I can put you in touch with the fellow who made it for me.

MARSHOLLDOLL,looks great.I take it there was modifications involved with your bumper.Do you also have the front defender bumper,as well?Starklite has the front one for $102.I'm just not sure if It's going to fit.Thank You for the feed back.Oh yea,remember when I first joined the Forum and you sent me a pic of your bike and so forth.......got talking about the shifter from Ted....I have one on It's way from him,bud.Do you know if that Drifter "Cochise" is still making these bumpers?

Here are pics of my 1999 1500 with the defender bumper. I purchased this from an Indian dealer in Ca. but I googled Indian Defender Bumper to find it. To make it work was another story.

I'm looking to add a little bit more character to MA-DEUCE,and really like the defender bumpers.I've read previous post on these and saw that "chonise" (I think was the name?)I'll double check later had made his own rear bumper.Does anyone know if he's still around?I pm him with no response,believe he also is from Canada so he might be busy with the snow like the rest of our northern drifters.I found them on Starklite website,but not sure if the front bumper will fit a Drifter.Any feed back would greatly be appreciated...Thanks fellow Drifters.
