I just wanted to confirm that the RC8 front fender will fit the 1290 Superduke?
In the process of bleeding the brakes & it is a real bitch to work with the stock 1290 front fender

What are some of the better brands to use & which ones to steer clear of?

Some pics of the front fender swaps would be nice to see, not sure if I want gloss or matt finish either? gloss would be a little bit more durable with stone chips & removing bug gut stains etc surely?

Someone must have pics of the RC8 front guards on the Superduke?

Both the old and new RC8 front fenders will bolt straight onto the 1290

Here we have a carbon (old style) one fitted to my first bike and the latest (new style) painted up on my 2nd bike

I don't mean to hunker down like a repliracer. I mean if it adjusts the the aerodynamics and puts the wind over your head. Buffeting etc. I love my bike, but I'd like to ride at 90mph for a few hours straight without having to row my own body weight for the same amount of time. I had a VRod with a nacelle and road straight from Chicago to Saint Petersburg FL without any real issues beyond general rider fatigue.
