Carbon front fender installed

(heavybusa @ Mar. 23 2007,18:03) Looks good! Someone needs a new stator cover.

Someone needs to get that tin pop metal junk off of their bike!

I can't believe Busa riders are still going into corners heavy (like the Dragon) and not having more protection.

Have you ever seen a stator coil and crank bolt ground down after a low side?

Not worth it, let me tell ya!

Buy one of these for $180.00. Cheap insurance. Replaceable puck, too!

(Revolution @ Mar. 24 2007,10:04) how much ligher is the carbon compared to the stock plastic? noticable difference??

looks good.

If you hold both pieces (fender) in each a hand, carbon is definitely lighter. But when talking plastics, unless you're aiming for shaving every possible ounce off your bike, it's more for the looks. I dont know the precise weight difference...

I guess if you were to replace all body parts, you could save probably something like a pound or two.

I got this one  from Magical Racing through StreetnTrack. It was 1.5-2.0 lbs lighter than the stock fender. I like it because you can see more of the wheels and CF is badass!

Lucky you with your carbon wheels!!!! Thats definitely a mod i'd do if was ready to drop that kind of money on the bike... It's not for now anyway.

How was the effect on handling and performance?

 

[bigt973]

Handling is definately better. I've only been to the drag strip once with them and I was rusty so I did not see any improvement there but that was more my fault. I don't think, at my riding level at the strip, I would see that much difference anyway.

(Revvv @ Mar. 24 2007,01:58) I like it. Now - who makes that fender so I can get one?

I got it from this eBay store... HERE

Good prices, carbon quality is A1 and very fast shipping.

They charge you alot to ship to Montreal?

I have the same bike & am debating doing that as well.

If you have a pic from a further angle & have time to post it, please do. Would like to see how it looks from further.

Thanks ...
