WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Circumcised or un circumcised? Because the ladies prefer circumcised. So get busy cutting all that excess fenderskin off your machine. As they say.....it makes it easier to clean and looks better too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blown 331 Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 I never understood why people cut them. I'm with you. Mine had cut fenders and I bought stock ones. Looks so much better. Might as well just just take all the plastic off and ride around like that, wouldn't look any worse than race cuts. Flame suit on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sickOne Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 no cut here I like how it looks with them on, it doesn't look like you forgot the other half of your fenders at home.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Burgandy Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 I wish I never cut mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggzy Posted August 10, 2015 Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 I wish I never cut mine Why? Appearance or other? I just finished a rebuild and bought all new plastics. I always swore I'd never cut my plastics but cash was getting tight so I bought the "Race Cut" fronts. While I'm waiting for the graphics, I put the old ones back on and cut them because of the stress marks and generally crappy appearance. I just rode yesterday for the first time on the rebuild and didn't miss the fenders at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Burgandy Posted August 10, 2015 Report Share Posted August 10, 2015 Just appearance. Nice plastics without stress marks looks like a trail bike and not a naked /drag bike. For stress marks on your old plastics use a heat gun and it helps get rid of them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just came in from putting a heat gun to the rears. Fronts were done several times and they get brittle from using the heat gun repeatedly. Since I wasn't so attached anymore, I opted to just cut 'em. But now they they look good again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure it'll make much difference in the woods. Definitely more *bush*dynamic :-) Sent from my KFOT using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duodenum Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 My opinion is that it depends on your riding conditions. I cut a perfectly good set a few years back and ended up buying a new set with fenders after a few rides.... Here in the east, one water puddle or mud patch and your goggles are totally covered. You'll get muddy with or without them but not being able to see 2 minutes into a ride is sorta a problem. Banshees look 500 times better without them IMO but unless your riding dry/desert/asphalt, I would leave them. I learned the hard way.
