hi clyde and welcome. i added fenders to mine which i needed because i use the motorized bicycle to commute back and forth to work. as long as you relize they can hurt you if they come loose that is what is important. check them often and fix the mounts the moment they look like they may be going bad if you decide to keep them. it is something i check after and before every ride. thats a good looking ride. i like red. glad to have you with us
