I have a tux tail laying around somewhere, don't know who made it but it fits pretty good. I prefer the chrome fender plugs, but I don't change it out that often..

Yep Musky..

Bushr got one for his bike..buckled up ..looked like a piece of &^*#..you wouldn't expect that from Mustang


I had a Mustang bib on my last bike and it fit like a glove. Really surprised me how lousy the one for this bike fit. Wasn't even close. After I got it I did some reading and it seems a lot of people had the same complaint. Shoulda read before I bought. Don't want anyone else to run into the same problem.

Flashback, did you have a hard time using the plugs when you did use them?

nope, no problems, I still have them in. but I have only removed them once in the last year to put a rack on for a few weeks. I found that it takes a little patience to work them out, but they go in quite easily..

I buoght some plastic panel buttonds from a car accesorie shop. Sprayed them up same colour as the bike. Worked fine and cost next to nothing - until I got my rear fender rack and Mustang seat which used all the holes.

I thought about a fender bib. Anyone have one of those that they like. I have heard of bibs that don't look right because they don't lay don on the fender right.
Just want something that looks good.



I love mine!

I just ordered a Mustang also . We will see if they are any good. I like the idea, as long as it looks good.
