Is this a quick fix or do I need to worry and take it into the shop where they are busy as hell?

More info would be helpful. A pic or 2 if something can be seen. What model do you have?

:agree: But if it's a front fender; check the mounting bolts, before getting yourself crazy over it... :thumbup:

If it's the rear fender, and you ride an RS; start looking for cracked struts... :shocked:

And DON"T ride it any further than necessary to fix it! :yikes:

I ride a 2014 Limited the only thing that can be seen is the right front fender vibrating as you are riding.

Jwic3 ......................... 2014 Limited what????


while stopped can you make it move by hand? and if so look for a loose bolt somewhere.

(if you put your year and model Spyder in your signature, then everyone will know what you have for any further questions)

:agree:
Right front fender? You should be able to find the mounting bolts for the fender... A little bit of investigating will be necessary...
I'd suggest raising the front of the bike, and pulling the wheel; it'll give you more fighting room! :thumbup:

Went outside in this cold rainy azz Colorado weather and found the right fender moves when pushed or pulled and the left fender is stiff.

That inner fender shroud can be removed easily; there's about two bolts at each end of it: fore and aft...
Pop that off, and you should have access to the rest of the mounting bracketry for the fender. :thumbup:

with all above but also check the struts for welding cracks. Right above the bolts there will be some welding. We have seen some fail...:thumbup:
