Emblem on front or back of motorcycle fender?
I have what I was told was a 1955 harley davidson model k front fender. After looking at pics online I think it might be a 57 sportster only because it doesnt have that little flip but the previous owner was sure it was a model k. Is this possible? And which side of the fender is the front or back, there is a small hole at the very bottom middle like for an emblem or trim and a small hole on one side of the suspension indentation

The K model ran until 1957 when it was redesignated the XLSportster.The fender you described was used from 1955-1964, including the late K models.The hole goes in the rear, and the brake cable retainer hole should be on the right.

I have to pull one of my books, but I thought K model ran till 59. The hole in the middle of fender goes to the back, toward the motor. The hole on the side is for the bracket to hold the speedo drive cable. It's rivited on. I'd give you pics, but I'm not at the shop till Tuesday.
