First thing is first, mix a tall drink of choice:arsenal(mine is a captain and coke). First step I measured about 4.5 inches from the tip of the front fender back, cut it straight off. I then use the cut off piece as a template for my trace line and final cuts. Lay the cut off piece over the fender and carefully trace with a utility knife. I made about 4 passes carefully with progressive pressure(DON"T go all the way through yet!). Then from underneath the fender(start on right or left) I cut all the way through the fender. It comes off really clean if you take your time. I then sand the final piece with 100, 150, then 220 grit sandpaper. It came out real nice. Much better than the factory duck bill. I think it looks like a true supermoto bike now.:thumbup: Only thing left to do is go rip up your tires!(tomorrow cuz I had the drinks):bike:

I'd switch it up to Sailor Jerry rum. It tastes the same, IMO a bit better (it's spiced very nicely), and its stronger, and cheaper!


The fender does look good though!

LOL, usually I'd drink a jack and coke, but I had no jack.:laughingr

You could have gone for the Acerbis fender instead... but you did an awesome job in the cutting I would say...

However, the Acerbis is a nightmare to fit...:damn::damn:

Here's the result...

I want to keep my original plastics... ermm... original... :lol:

Looks WAY better. The main things putting me off the looks of the WR are the huge stock muffler/heat shield and that front fender. it actually looks almost as good as a DRZ now!
