What's this fender go to ?

I got this fender in a free pile & I'm wondering what type of vehicle it went to .

First reaction is that it's for a Harley Davidson motorcycle. Not sure the year & model

Looks to be Harley. Soft Tail Fat boy Road king? Take it to a biker shop They Know all (bow down)

Based on the bolt holes, maybe this: For Harley Shovelhead FX FXE Fxef FXS Rear Fender 73 85 | eBay
Seems like maybe the taillight mounting lumps were removed from yours?

I took it down to my local motorcycle shop - they are close on Mondays , I will try again tomorrow when they are open .

I like that link NH !

Now I feel really really stupid since I own an 81 Shovelhead. The tail light mount being missing is what threw me...

I brought it to my local bike shop today - the owner was outside working on an old guys Harley (with a sidecar) he said it "might be from a Harley"
Then the old guy said it looks like a older one because it's "skirted"
Then the owner asked the old man if it might be from an Indian - He said no .

If it is from an old Harley it can bring $$$ especially if it is from a trike. A friend of mine just paid 6K for three trike fenders from the 30's Worth finding out for sure.

The only thing that throws me is that most Harley fenders are indented (recessed) around where the rear light housing mounts. This one is not. Also the light cut out doesn't match any Harley ones Ive seen? May not be Harley?

 

[trdking]

I agree with you on the indent no indent. But if it is old who knows who customized it? We know that never happens

Where did you get this fender mojjax? Maybe that will help date it?

Cheers

I got it about 10 years ago from a free pile . People purchased the house & put a bunch of junk out front that the prior owner's left behind .
