Whats it off?
« on: August 05, 2020, 07:34:31 AM »
As per the heading this is not so much a what is it?   Its clearly a rear mudguard.

I bought it for my 550 F2 as the chrome is excellent and the frame fittings are correct, however my rear light/licence plate holder has a 4 bolt fixing (two top and two bottom) whereas this piece only has three.   I'm assuming its still for a 550, but perhaps a different model with a different rear light bracket set up. I could drill it to suit of course but that would probably damage the chrome. Does anyone know which bike its off?

I thought it was uk because I have a uk K3 and it has three holes for rear lights and number plate mount.

Mine does have the captive bolts at the front to catch plastic inner guard and rear frame cross member.

Thanks for letting me know chaps.  I'll probably put it on ebay as I've sold my F2.
Now where did I put that 10mm socket?
