THE REAR HALF OF THE VICTORY VISION FENDER IS PLASTIC. THE MOUNTING POINTS ON MY FENDER CRACKED. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS THE FENDER BLOWS UP INTO THE FAIRING PREVENTING THE RIDER FROM STEERING OR CONTROLLING THE MOTORCYCLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO A NUMBER OF VISION RIDERS ALREADY AND VICTORY IS AWARE THIS HAZARD EXISTS. LUCKILY NO ONE HAS BEEN KILLED. THANKFULLY THE CRACKS IN MY FENDER WERE DISCOVERED DURING SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE. MY DEALER, JPM PERFORMANCE POWERSPORTS HAS THE DEFECTIVE FENDER AND HAS A NEW FENDER ON ORDER. HAD I BEEN ON THE ROAD AND THE FENDER CAME APART IT COULD HAVE PLACED MY LIFE, THE LIFE OF MY PASSENGER OR ANY INNOCENT BYSTANDERS IN GRAVE DANGER AND

I'M NOT EXACTLY SURE WHEN THE FENDER BROKE BUT I FOUND IT GIVING THE BIKE A FULL ONCE OVER JUST BEFORE A 2500 MILE ROAD TRIP. IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE ONLY TWO BOLTS THAT HOLD THE BACK HALF OF THE FENDER SECURE TO THE FORKS. THEY CRACK OUT THE CHEAP COMPOSITE PLASTIC THAT THE FENDER IS CONSTRUCTED OF. THE MATERIAL IS TOTALLY INFERIOR AND BRITTLE AND SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH BREAKING AND CAN POTENTIALLY CAUSE THE STEERING TO LOCKUP AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR WORSE... A DEATH. *TR
