A motorcycle customization component designed for specific models, it typically includes a shaped piece of material meant to cover the rear tire, along with necessary mounting hardware. This assembly alters the motorcycle’s aesthetic and provides protection from road debris kicked up by the rotating tire. As an example, one might find such a package including a steel fender, struts, and associated fasteners.
The significance of this modification lies in its ability to dramatically change the motorcycle’s appearance, often contributing to a more streamlined or aggressive profile. Benefits extend beyond aesthetics, offering a degree of protection to the rider and passenger from water and road grime. Historically, these replacements have evolved from purely functional items to highly stylized accessories reflecting individual rider preferences and customization trends.
