I am looking to buy a Fender Extender for my K5 as the weather in this country is terrible. I was just wondering if theres any diffrence in quility and length of whats availible. I am going to bond it on I think rather then use ugly screws. Has anyone colour coded theres?
Remcomendations of what to buy and avoid would be great! |

I took off the mudguard off my curvy and araldited the extender to it thus doing away with need for those horrible screws. However 'cos the extender was such a dreadful fit eventually it started to part company as the tension it was under was to great. Might not be a problem with the squarer cut to the pointy's mudguard.
Also, why doesn't somebody make a full aftermarket guard with an extra bit on it. You can by ones with extended bits to cover the fork legs, but no one has taken the plunge to manufacture a longer length one. If that all makes sense. ![]() |

I fitted my pyramid one with the attached sticky pads and some special pop rivets you can use for plastic just fitted two of them one each side behind the brake hose brackets you can hardly see them and there is no chance of it falling off

I used a SVmania one on my pointy, I didn't like the look of screws so just glued it with sikaflex 221 glue no probs so far.

I screwed mine on - took the mud guard offand screwed it on.. tried to glue it but it wouldnt hold.!!...
and I didnt fancy it coming off at 70 mph and my back wheel going over it. touched the screws up with matching paint and it looks fine |
