Some have put the front fender from an 1800 VTX C on their Valks. I think there's a small mod to do to make it fit.....but nothing too difficult. Looks good on a Valk IHMO.

I saw a write-up on installing the VTX 1800 fender on the Valkyrie but can't seem to find it now. It's probably out there somewhere. I like the look a lot!

I had a write up about this mod but I now realize that the server is out to lunch. I'll create a new one and get back to you.  |

OK here it is. http://quexpress.atwebpages.com/vtx_fender.htmThat was 8 years ago ... how time flies!  I've moved my web site to a different host. Therefore there are some broken links. When I get a chance, I'll fix them. |

using a die grinder could you shorten up & thin out the OEM front fender? Mine got crunched and I was thinking about doing it.

Technically anything's possible, but I believe the edge is rolled. You'd have a hard time duplicating that and without it you'd get corrosion pretty quick. |
