Does anyone here have the Ducati Performance aluminum fender?

I'm on the fence about buying one, and there aren't a whole lot of pics out there. But from what I've seen they look pretty damn sweet.

Just mangled my stock fender in an attempt to chop it :(

Doesn't even appear to need chopped in any way...damn it looks sexy

is it dent proof?

I have looked at the underside of my plastic fender and it has some real "insults" carved into it....

not sure aluminum will go the distance without looking like a tramp semi-tractors trailer eventually

I guess thickness will be an important consideration
This is an insult to the Pez community

Good points that I hadn't thought of. Oddly enough that makes me want to buy it more just so I can post a review.

PM Duck stew and see if he still has one

You can ask but I think that fender went to duc_poultry then with the bike when it was sold, IIRC.

Won't hurt to ask though. I love that fender too [thumbsup]

Hows a price of $99 shipped sound for this fender? based on the $$ of oem fenders, it seems like a good deal to me.

Bearded Duc- does the fender look nice and low profile IRL like it does in that pic? I really hate how long and goofy my stock fender was before I mangled it with a plunge cutter.

That pic is completely representative of how they look.

Here's one I put on an S4R.

If you don't want one of those for $99 shipped, I'm sure there's others here that would gladly go for that deal.

Yeah, the pics don't do the fender justice. They really look the tits in person!

$99 sipped sounds good to me. Hell, I've seen OEM fenders going for $150.

I saw that S4R on cragislist shortly after Jesse sold it and really wanted to buy it, but then I asked Jesse and found out the seller was asking way too much... :-\

What kind of mufflers are those, Jeff?
