Description of the problem	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. In researching this problem, i have found numerous cases of this defect. I called and talked to a harley-davidson customer service representative, but was told that since there is no recall issued for this defect there is nothing they can do. Some of the other fenders i have seen pictures of have multiple splits up both sides of the fender parallel to the light assembly. This is potentially hazardous defect due to the chance the rear light could detach from the fender causing damage or even injury. I have pictures of my rear fender and multiple pictures of other fenders with this problem in case you need them to see the potential danger in this defect.
