I done made a boo boo i was backing up my bike and rolled into a object that did not move. My rear fender has a small kink in it. Any ideas how to strighten it out?

Might be time to shop for options. :-D I believe Brent (Newbonneville.com) has a rear fender removal kit for bonny std./T-100's. You might find a rear fender for sale on e-bay or the classifieds on this forum. If it's not too bad, you may want to live with it till a good deal comes available. Ride and put lots of miles on bonny. Worry about cosmetics during the winter months. :-D

Ray, if I remember correctly you have a black fender. If it were me, I would take the opportunity to go for the shorter, sportier look of the Thruxton sized fender. Bella Corse has it already in black. Clicky to see

If the kink is in the right spot and you want a shorter fender, you could also try cutting it down yourself. A few of the guys here have done it.

Here is the replacement fender (3rd down) from New Bonneville but you'll need to paint it

that black fender from bellacorse looks great, I have it. No paint needed. It really cleans up the rear end, and makes rear tire removal easier.

Sweat, do you have a pic you can post?

I ordered the rear half fender in black from Triumphs 68 sixty eight parts collection. Hasn't come in yet so I can't comment on quality.

Here's the short fender that newbonneville offers. I got the one that comes smooth to better accommadate the aftermarket tail light. It did cost a couple bucks to get it painted.

Here she is.

No paint required.

I had the same problem, but on a Speedmaster. Probably a bit worse than yours - my son dropped my Road King over on it. Removed the fender and took it to a body shop and they fixed me right up.

I think I like the look of the aftermarket fenders some of the others posted. :wink:

Those short fenders look great on your Bonnies, guys. I think that may be my next purchase - along with the Lucas style tailight.
