Cannonball Bobber Springer Front Fenders

A small part which makes a big difference - at least for the connoisseur. This neat little butterfly was used to hold the 5/8” wide fender braces in place on all models 1934-1939. The factory spot welded it but you can TIG-weld or braze it, too. Three are needed per bike, two on the front and one on the rear fender.

As early as in the 1930’s factory accessory catalogs showed decorative reflectors or jewels, which proved very popular for decades. You could place them almost everywhere on the bike to achieve that extra shine. Our selection of Red Fox reflectors includes various types for multiple purposes, each in different colours. They are authentic reproductions of the period parts with real glass lenses and correct details. Indicated lengths are measured without stud.

As early as in the 1920’s photographs show bobbed, i.e. shortened fenders when the boys took off their JD’s rear fender’s tail sections and cut chunks off the front fenders at off-road events like the famous Jack Pine rally. This habit soon became popular outside the race tracks and enduros, and so the Bobber style was born. For rebel riders of the fourties and fifties who didn´t want themselves and their bikes to look conservative like the uniform clubs of the era, this modification was a must. And for today’s bikers who own a rigid frame Harley and who want to revive the good old times, our Cal-Bobber fenders are the way to go, too.

The story goes like this: when the weather is nice you enjoy the breeze in your face and when it turns bad you wish you had some protection. So what can you do? The solution is the smart Hanson roll-up windshield, which appeared on the accessory scene in the late 1940s. With this one you can have both. In its lower position the screen tucks on the handlebars and you are "in the wind", but rolled-up it almost provides the protection of a regular windshield. Up and down positions can be established in seconds. These reproductions are accurately made after the period part and will look right at home on any American classic motorcycle.
