Custom Fenders.

Just A quick question, Does anyone know if or how its possible to create custom fenders for the GZ,

Im thinking about trying to give my bike an Indian look, where very little wheel is showing, not to everyones taste I know but thats just me.

Found this website:
http://www.oldinc.com/oldysin.htm

Something similar to this but obviously to fit a GZ.

I apologize if this is already been discussed!

Re: Custom Fenders.

IIRC, in the last coupla years, the only posts have been "how to make the fenders smaller"

Re: Custom Fenders.

Take a electric saw to the plastic stock ones and make your own custom fenders.

D'oh. :whistle:

Try the front plastic fender from a Kawasaki Drifter.

Check the one out I used to own here: Sarris Drifter

Re: Custom Fenders.

Hey guys, sorry about the time its taken me to respond,

I would email them but im not sure of the dimensions involved. Any one know?

That drifter looks perfect but i cannot find any websites that have just the fenders!

Re: Custom Fenders.

Here is the front fender new from Ron Ayers: Kawi Fender

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS FITS A GZ OR NOT!!

THIS IS ONLY FOR STYLE AND WILL PROBABLY NEED MODIFICATION TO PROPERLY FIT!!

Re: Custom Fenders.

Haha, thanks alot

Living in the Uk is a bit of a bummer with companies like that either not shipping overseas or charging an extortionate ammount!

alas when i come into some more money i will look for somewhere a little more local!

Thanks again
