Replica front mudguards from David Silver

(1/2) > >>

SteveW:
Has anyone bought one?
Just wondering what the fit / quality is like before I possibly get one for my 550.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I fitted one to my 500, IIRC it has slightly bigger bottom fittings with rubber eyes, mine fitted after a bit of a struggle.

It was getting the stays to sit right that was a fiddle, link to my post, unfortunately the photo was deleted by me on Flickr.

I did wonder if they ever altered the tank design from the supplier after your fitting problems.

SteveW:
Could I use my existing stays on the new mudguard?
