Well I got my fenders in today, little problem. Rear fender is too short it wont mount on my upper chain stay mount and reach the bottom bracket mount. Front fender the U bracket that slips around the fork is too tall so I cant mount it on my sprung fork on my springer as the bottom most hole puts the fender against the tire.
I hate to cut the rivets out and do something different as the fenders look good. So now I guess I am in the market again to find some chrome shorty fenders that will actually fit.
Right now I am thinking bolt the rear fender on at the bottom bracket then use a long bolt and bend the tab bracket up to the upper mount. Only logical thing I can think of but I don't know if I can get 2 to 3 inches worth of bend to get it to fit without spacers.
