Is the rear fender meant to be plastic?
Question
Hi there everyone. Is the rear fender on a 2010 883 meant to be plastic or metal like the front? Thanks all, I’m new to Harleys so likely to have quite a few questions so I apologize in advance if you get bored of hearing from me
Thanks guys, I want to start taking a pillion but wasn’t sure where the weight of the pillion would sit. I need to replace the fender supports so I assume the fender bolts to those and then a pillion pad would just sit on the fender and that would be strong enough?

Metal… American motorcycle companies are all allergic to plastic… Lol

There is my bike with a Harley Davidson 48 style pillion seat. Works great for shorter distances… But above 250km my wife starts to Complain…
A composite.
