Pull the rubbers out of the old fender. See how big those holes are. Eyeball where the holes are on your old fender. Get a small drill bit and drill the holes where they look like where they should go. set the fender on your triples like you're going to mount it and see if the small holes you just drilled line up with the bolt holes. If they do, then make the holes as wide as they are on your old fender, then put in your rubber bushings. Last, mount that hoss up.

put grease on the bolt holes on the tree. set the fender up against the grease and you have you spots to drill.
