I took off one of the bolts, only to discover that whoever put it on before, used the wrong size bolt. It got totally stripped&#8230; So now I gotta order a new bolt. I swear this whole fender thing is killing me. I am just going to use the red one I got, which fits without modification, and paint the rest of the bike red. I just have to scrape off the white paint that I put on it earlier. Plus the rack I got is red. Another plus for red is that it will be easy to find a matching spray paint. I like red too. It&#8217;s nice.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/barron\/61266285\/\" title=\"Photo Sharing><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/static.flickr.com\/29\/61266285_a2f6718b66_m.jpg\" width=\"159\" height=\"240\" alt=\"Rack Colors\"><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>The CT90 rack fits on nicely, with the two bolts on the side matching the C70&#8217;s mounting holes perfectly.
