| If you search under fender extenders, you should find some discussions on this. One from last month so maybe it will help. |

| Yamaha Riva. JC Whitney also has some withno writing on them.
Requires drilling fender.
Work great, no engine cooling problems. Should be standard equipment.

| Cheapo way... go to the local truck tyre supply and ask for an old inner tube... 18 wheeler type stuff. This is butyll and fairly thick and stretches a mile before it will give an inch and if it does tear off just put on another one. With the curvature it will not flap about all that much and it can be cut to whatever shape and length. I used these on the trail bikes in years gone by. |

| I made a front mud flap from a piece cut from a black plastic plant pot, and it's secured to the mud guard with double-sided adhesive pads and black silicone auto sealant. I also gave the fork brace a good coat of anti-corrosion spray, and fitted a set of fork protectors while the mud guard was off. |
