Default front fender removal

I'm trying to take off the front fender and the speedometer cable guide is giving me problems. It's attached with rivets and I'd prefer to just leave it on. So that means removing the speedometer cable at one end or the other. Anybody got any tips on how to do that?

Thanks

All you have to do it take the speedo cable out of the drive--1 phillips bolt

Kinda freaks me out that the bolt was missing. I'm thinkin I better get a new one. You don't happen to know what size it is do you? Maybe a pic of it? Thanks.

Hmmmm that's weird. Did you buy the bike used? Maybe the previous owner forgot to put the screw back in.

I bought it new. It may have been missing the whole time, I just never noticed until now. [sm=bangbang.gif]
