•Countersunk Bungs + Stainless Rod 3-Point Mount:This mount type involves using countersunk bungs (recessed holes) and stainless steel rods to create a sleek and untraditional look for the front fender.Typically, three mounting points are used, providing stability and a clean appearance.However, this style may not work well on more classic bikes due to its sharp edge design1.
•General Front Motorcycle Fender Mounting Technique:Regardless of the specific mount type, the process for mounting a front custom fender involves the following steps:Threaded Mounts: Start with a universal fender blank made of 3mm aluminum. These blanks fit most common tire sizes (17", 18", and 19" rims) and have bracing straps welded underneath for strength.Drill and Tap: Decide on the number of mounting points (2, 3, or 4). Mark the locations, drill holes, and tap them to create threads.Thread Size: Use M6 thread taps and screws for most fenders. For a minimal look, M5 threads can be used.Advantages: The aluminum fenders allow for close fitment to the tire, easy removal/installation, and good tire clearance1.
•Universal Motorcycle Front Fender Clamp (Alloy):If you’re looking for a simple solution, you can use a universal front fender clamp made of alloy.These clamps securely hold the fender in place and are available in various colors (black, silver, red, blue).They come with bolts and nuts for easy installation2.
