[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1236220, member: 3828"] Jer, The front fender has a flange bushing that is supposed to be behind the fender, inside the mounting surface of the fork. It is item #3 in the [URL="https://www.stadiumyamaha.com/oemparts/a/yam/50732852f8700218e05b8872/fender"]exploded parts diagram[/URL]. Make sure that bushing is there and also the washer (#4) is on the outside, as those parts clamp the fender when the bolt is tightened. Also make sure that nobody swapped a wrong bolt in there that is too long and bottoms out in the blind hole before these parts are fully tight. The rear two bolts are "through bolts" and go completely through the nut clips Hope that helps (edit - fixed my link) [/QUOTE]
