You're going to love those. I put a set on mine earlier this winter and they work very well even for the slush and salt spray. The rubber mud flaps are nice and long and if you can, mount the front fender top tab on the rear of your fork if possible which will give you a little longer length on the front which should keep your feet perfectly dry. The best part about fenders is not having to slow down for puddles anymore and it keeps the bike so much cleaner and for you, no more yuk yuk in your face
