Fender extender and Beak Mods
 

Have made a first prototype longer extension for the front guard as well as a beak similar to GS range to stop crud and wind blast coming up through tank and fork aperature. Hope to fit tomorrow. Also made simple side stand foot enlargement in 4mm alloy.

Will post pics when someone explains how its done:icon_study:

Fitting with three m4 bolts and nylocs



Starting the beak re shape means more work on what’s left of the moto x guard.
The fork holes are re posotioned and the cutouts are for the fork stanchions. Hope to get all fitted tomorrow.

All fitted today with no problems and the extender kept ALL crap off the front of the bike on a 100+ mile jaunt. Not too sure of the beak...it works with wind between tank and bars etc. but not too sure with look. Maybe a poll here to decide. Pics will be up tomorrow.:ebay:

Since I have a high fender I dont have any wind between tank and bars.
But the radiator is getting a lot of mud, but if I cross water, its clean again :-)

Cotthem does your high fender cause any bother at high speeds ?

This may be the solution for the wind up the centre of the bike.

what brand was your fender ?

How have you fitted the high fender? The clearence is none existent for a standard Moto X one and they hit the Rad front face. Be nice to see a pic.
