Hi Folks, my front mudguard is getting into a pretty sorry state, all the usual cracks in all the usual places.
Now getting a new,or even a decent one, is getting harder and harder.
Is there a substitute from any other machine that folks have used to replace their front mudguard/fender ?

Check the first post --it maybe of some help. 

I'm just took the front fender off after having it on the bike for one season and the repair has held up--no cracks

I think 88 ect fzr ones may fit, I'm using a late model zx9 front gaurd , not a direct bolt on , but anything will fit if your patient enough
unless you ride bikes, I mean really ride bikes, then you just won't get it

84 Fj1100  effie , with mods

At this particular time you can get the front half of the fender, maybe even in the correct color from the inventory I have in stock.

Yamaha Front Fender

The back half of the fender is obsolete and eBay is your only friend there for the time being.
