Need Mud Flap 59235-26

[wideglide38]

Does anyone have a nice, slightly used original mud flap [p/n 59235-26] and wanna sell it? Or maybe a web link to buying a correct replica flap? I need for a '48 Big Twin.

I seen quite a few different so called "replicas" on-line. Please correct me if I am wrong; but, isn't the original flap made of black rubber laminated w/ cloth or cord backing? I ask since I have seen leather flaps on-line as well.

Thanks,

Thanks! Do you know if rubber or leather was a standard OEM product offering in L'48?

Thanks! I seen leather on earlier models.

I believe the early and late mudflaps were rubber, with leather used in WW2 when rubber got hard to find.

Thanks Steve. That makes sense!
