This bike has very nice features, large cylinder juggs american engine like, bottom end opposite side of exhaust kinda looks like harley sportster, rigid/hard tail look similar to many classic American Motorcycles.
Wondering how difficult it would be to mount Indian skirted fenders on this bike? The rear suspension is very much like the Drifter 800 (soft tail), may need little modification or simple bolt on?
Mounting skirted fender on front? has dual disk brakes, so would need dual cut outs. wondering if front forks have same width? wheels show common height, this bike little wider.
ebay has generic Indian Fenders, maybe Kawasaki fenders?
Does Kawasaki have another large cruiser softail, that would make a good Indian Clone?
Thanks for any thoughts and ideas,
Ernest

Might be hard on the rear...
I think your right Chief. Why not use the rear fender thats there and design sides for it based on the Drifter , Indian style. The front fender could be cut down the center and made wider or narrower. Fiberglass is very user friendly and allows you to be very creative
You can also buy steel Indian fenders on the 'net; the name of the outfit building them eludes me just now, but you could Google it and find what you need there; if my memory serves me right, you can order custom widths as well. If my memory should kick back in, (and good luck with that);D I will pass on the website info to you.

Okay, had a brain fart, ;D here is the site I was talking about.
www.indianfenders.com These are sheet metal fenders. Iron Horse Corral is the name of the business. I haven't been to their site in awhile; hope the link still works.
Another site is: www.oldinc.com; this is Oldy's Custom Composites; a nice line of composite fenders. both these are worth checking out.
