Check your front tire for a missing wheel weight. They come off and ding the fenders from the inside just like your pictures.

Talk to Chip about it.


I totally agree that looks like wheel weight flew off your front wheel!!  :'(

You see the same joke that I do.
It's ok though, it's the internet, having knowledge of the pertinent facts in a situation is not a requirement to offer an opinion.
I'm just glad I was able to help Tommy.

Sorry for the dumb question, but how do you check to see if a wheel weight came off?  I have a new CUSE Big Blue w/1,200 miles and just noticed that I have 8-9 dings running down the front fender, very similar to the previous post.  I am just getting ready for a 2,000 mile trip - if a wheel weight came off, I assume I should get that fixed prior to the trip...

Thanks!

Typically, you'll see the remnants of the wheel weight adhesive, but the wheel weight itself is gone....  And yes, if you've lost the weights you'll want the wheel rebalanced.   :2vrolijk_21:

After talking to Chip and reading post from 56FLE, hd brad 03 and HARLEY GUY 5, I took a closer look at the bike.  Sure enough the wheel weights are gone!

Dropping the bike off at the dealer today for the 10k service and a grocery list of things that need to be addressed.  One of which will be the dents!

Thanks guys for saving me $876!

And when the fenders get to be a few years old like the '04 B&B, the price escalates to well over a grand.   :o  spyder

Harley Davidson should replace your fender under warranty per our conversation.
Who is here for you Tommy?

This should be good for another bottle of Glare.




I guess you earned a bottle of glare... you are worth something. :D :D :D

When I first read this thread I got bummed as this happened to me also having a rock hit the front fender. Got a replacment for mine and all is good but still have the old fender and when I see it, it brings back the bad memory. I will have to get that thing fixed so I dont have to look at it.

Tommy, I'm so happy for you seeing that you should get it covered due to the wheel weights missing, sure made my morning seeing how just beloning to this comunity cane save someone some money.
