Title: would a v7 classic front fender fit directly onto a stone/jackal?
Post by: nashopolis on April 07, 2015, 08:55:55 PM: Hello all

I'm working on transforming my Jackal into less of a cruiser. I've got a stack of parts that will work but the front fender I got isn't going to be an easy swap.

Looking around I got to wondering - would a new style V7 aluminum front fender like they sell at Harpers and other places bolt onto my jackal?
The mounts looks right in the pics but that is all know (which is not much)

I guess the follow up question is if not - does anyone have a titanium style fender laying around they don't need? Seems like those would work for sure or another alternative?

I'm at the beginning of my very first build - so I promise to take pictures and show off my valiant efforts at customizing my bike....
more soon to follow.

many thanks!

Anybody else know if the new V7 stuff might fit the Jackals? I'm curious and it'd give me more options.
thanks

Looks like MG classic's stash is dry for now - so off to plan B or C?
