Description

FIG. 1 is a side view of the portion of a motorcycle rear fender and rear fender support cover embodying the present invention while in use; and,

FIG. 2 is an enlarged side view of a portion of the design.

The present application is directed to the design illustrated in the drawings. The other features of the drawings, such as the motorcycle shown in FIG. 1, are not considered part of the design sought to be patented, and have accordingly been shown in broken lines.
