Use a plastic cable harness and silicone it to the highest inside point of the fender.

This will relocate the harness out of the way for additional clearance. Don't go too big here; use the smallest size necessary to hold your wires.

For re-mounting the fender, we have two simple options. One, you can use a half width nut on the inside of the fender, or two, use a buttonhead allen bolt from the inside out and secure with nuts on the outside of the struts.

Either way will work, the choice of fastening is up to you.

Here are the basic hand tools used by the folks at Damon's Motorcycle Creations to perform the job.

Make sure the wheel spacing is correct for the center of the bike and you're ready to roll!
