Anyone following my rebuild thread (CB350F restoration by royhall) will know that I have been having difficulty with the pattern back mudguard. It was bought from M&P about 4 months ago to replace the very rusty original that came on the bike, and I have just got to the point where its being fitted.
Well it doesn't fit. The front screws are good but the side screws wont go anywhere near. Fixed that with the dremmel (will cold galvanise all the insides later) but the back light is nowhere near.

Check the out of line on the back light. The drillings are a mile out.

Although I bought it months ago, M&P have refunded me £30 (which they didn't have to do) and they say all the stock is the same. This is a repeating theme, wish I had spent the money on a secondhand guard and got it re-chromed.
In a nutshell, be warned these mudguards are crap (same part for 350 &400) but M&P are excellent.
