My front mudguard project is finished, and it's FOR SALE, I've used it for a few hundred miles , then I took it off to get it powder coated satin black, I've just taken it off again because I'm selling the bike,

£50 plus postage, I must say it works great,

Why you selling?? (The bike)

Is it just the lower guard your selling? Or both the upper and lower?

I'm having a real struggle with my Full Throttle front mudguard at the moment. When I'm riding at night and it's wet but not raining, I'm having to stop every 15 to 20 miles to clean the headlight as it is completely caked in road salt and emitting virtually zero light!

If they haven't yet sold I would be very interested in taking both from you.

It was just the one i made myself that was for sale, now sold to Mr M,

 

[MrM]

It looks good.

 

[ELVISTO]

It sure does MrM , Have you been out on it yet ?, it works a treat

 

[MrM]

No not yet. I usually ride through winter but the Ducati feels too delicate. Can't face it melting from the salt. Don't mind rain (with working mudguards), but watching it dissolve is to much.
I did some careful measuring and there is a possible conflict with the Evotech Engine guard at full compression.A few mm. It may never happen, but I won't risk it. I really like the fender, but I will probably sell it on.
I was impressed by your design and metal work skills. The angle of the stay and the bend to fit against the fender would be beyond me.

hi elvisto what was the brand or make of your mudguard u made ta jules

 

[ELVISTO]

Hi Jules, It was picked up at a bike jumble, thought it might fit, and it did, had to cut the stays off though and remove a few dents, perhaps a japanese mudguard from the 70/80s

jules,

A fender from a Triumph Bonneville America fits with just a little work, you need to trim the sides a bit.

The DS has a 19" wheel, just select the right Bonneville front fender.
Some Bonneville have also a 19" wheel.
