Mud flaps

I wanted to put mudflaps on my Tri Glide but didn't want to drill holes in the fenders. After remembering what I used years ago I finally found Gorilla snot ( glue to u guys) I used it years ago and never had a problem. So far these have been on for a month or so and are holding tight. I bought it at Charleston auto parts in Vegas. The behind the counter was an older guy and he knew what Gorilla snot was. Smear some one each part when tacky stick together and hold for a short time or stuff something between tire and mudflap to hold in place. I let mine set for a couple of hours. I think its a nice clean look. Mud flaps are 8" high x 10 1/2 wide.

Cost about $20.00 per mud flap.
 
Just a lil food for thought, I also put a front mud flap on our TG, reason being, I found myself picking stones/grit/debris/dirt outta my oil cooler, after the front mud flap, no more.

Looks good. I just wanted something I had not seen on any other trike before. U no like being original and different without spending a lot of money. U no when ur retired every penny counts.
 
Looking good there Dmdrone, lets us know if they stay on, my guess it looks to be about 4 or 5 inches from ground to bottom of mud flap by your pic, just a guess is all.

All for now Trampas
 
We rode about 200 miles anywhere from about 45 miles per hour to 80 miles per hour and they stayed on. I'll keep everyone updated as the hot weather gets here
