it may even be the rear fender support bracket that is actually bent. That could be causing the fender to look that way I'd suppose right?

Yes, that is probably whats causing it to look "crooked". The plastic fender will go with whatever is supporting it (support bracket).

Well, I guess it depends on the money you've got in your pocket... lol...
Did you consider to repair it? Maybe it could cost ya less than a new one...

Ya know, I never thought to fix it actually. I know I can't fix it myself I am not handy like that, but I am sure I could take it to a repair shop and see how much they would want to fix it and hopefully straighten it out. It being crooked is what is driving me crazy.

I noticed one on ebay for like $250 I think. Not sure if that is considered expensive or not

My bike was laid down by the previous owner and the rear fender has a small crack and is bent so my bike looks crooked from the back. Its been driving me crazy!

You can see the cracked bent fender on your bike from the rear?

You can't see the crack unless you look really close. But you can definitely tell its bent. The bike looks crooked literally.

As far as I know, any year fender should fit your bike.
But only if that's a 1500's, because 800's rear fender is way different...
I suggest you to take a look at Ebay, because sometimes it happens to pop up (but it's quite pricey...).
Just my 2 cents.

Thanks Mittico,

Hey Guys,

I need a new rear Fender for my 2001 1500 and was curious if other years/models would fit my bike or if I need to buy one specifically for my 01' 1500. Let me know and if you have some links to share where I can find one I would appreciate it. thanks.

Rob
