finally had something break
My rear fender tore completely on one side and partially one the other now is just flapping in the breeze I contacted my dealer and since mine is a 2009 they said it was covered, I noticed that the fender is a very bad fitting peice and it is under alot of pressure form the sides, I ride over alot of bumpy roads and railroad tracks so i think that was part of the problem but it is still unacceptable and I know the new peice will break eventually too. Have alot of people had this problem?

There was a bulletin out this summer regarding the torquing sequence when reinstalling the fender on to the bracket. Right now I'm off to work. If you want me to try and find it, let me know. You may want to check to see if your dealer is aware of the bulletin; this may help to prevent another breakage.
Here is the service bulletin number: 200-2011-7
Now I'm off to work.

Rear Fender to have one or not
Our rear fender broke this summer and just got a phone call saying it wasn't covered, so I happy for you that you are getting yours replace, but I wonder if you will get another one done, if it breaks again.

I would push your dealer for a warranty replacement as lots of (including myself ) have had this replaced under warranty with no questions asked, and if I'm not mistakened some have had thiers replaced twice ?
