Title: Front fender replacements
Post by Savage13 on 02/17/08 at 12:10:04

I had an oddball idea about the front fender on my 05 S40, i love the classic style of the gz250 front fender and was wondering if it would fit onto the forks of my s40; the stock s40's look like a dirtbike fender to me.

I've put one on mine that came from J & P cycles. I think our Savage is 5" between the forks,measure to be sure. I put one in the for sale page a few weeks back that was on craigs list Seattle. It would have been easier than mine as it had not been drilled yet, I had to had the holes welded shut and make new ones from using the old fender as a guide. Max

I checked there but i'm not very well versed with modding, i was hoping the gz250 would bolt in near perfectly though so i couldn't destroy anything lol

Surprisingly the 250 fender is much wider than ours. I looked into it before I did the J&P version. It runs a wider smaller tire than ours also. If you could find a 250 fender a good metalsmith could cut it down the middle. take a section out and re-weld and re-finsih it, would not be cheap I think. Max

If you're fitting that to your bike, are you selling your old standard fender, and if so, what would you charge to sell and ship it to the UK?
