I assume that the lightweight nature of the Sherpa combined with the high front fender 'sail effect' can affect handling at highway speed when gusty condition is present.

Personally, I have no problem with OEM fender setup as long as it doesn't clog up with mud. Looks of it doesn't bother me since I don't see it when I ride. It's all about the ride for me.
also had this happen on my 450. at first i was going to get a steering stabilizer to stop it, but just adjust my riding habit for it. never happens anymore.
