“I actually have a 2009 Harley-Davidson super glide custom (fxdc) with a Harley-Davidson street bob (FXDB) rear fender assembly. The rear fender was installed in 2011 by a Harley-Davidson dealership in daytona beach, florida. Since I had the rear fender installed, I have put approximately 2000 miles on the motorcycle. On november 16, 2013, I was washing the motorcycle and notices a split in the rear fender at the light assembly, starting at the rear bottom and running up the back of the fender, to the right and parallel to the light assembly. …”
