Is it necessary to install a fender on a motorcycle?

[DelChloe]

Whether it is necessary to install a fender on a motorcycle depends on the actual situation. If the rear fender of the motorcycle is short and small, providing poor mud protection, and you frequently ride on muddy roads, then installing a fender is advisable. Otherwise, it is unnecessary. Definition: A fender is a plate-like structure installed behind the outer frame of the wheel, usually made of high-quality rubber or engineering plastic. Fenders are typically metal, leather, plastic, or rubber panels installed behind the wheels of bicycles or motor vehicles. Function: The main purpose is to prevent mud from splashing onto the vehicle body or the rider, which can make the vehicle or rider look unattractive. It also helps prevent mud from splashing onto the tie rods or ball joints, which can cause premature rusting.
