Hello all,

I am looking to replace the huge chrome front mudguard on my Z1R with either the short chrome type, or if anyone has a suitable fibreglass one (or can recommend what to buy?) then i may be interested in that as an alternative.
My bike has a standard front end on it with an 18'' front wheel, many thanks in advance.

Andy,have a look about for the old RG500 type of front mudguard.
If you have a butcher's at Steve's (Moriwaki 1105) Z1R that's the type :wink:

Mind you, i`ve just been looking at the Zeds of Reading pics, http://www.z1ownersclub.co.uk/forum/vie ... hp?t=13607
and the short chrome mudguards most of them have would be exactly what i`m after. Anyone know where to get one, or have one for sale?

Cheers Gus, well found! That`s the kind i was after if i couldn`t get a chrome one, so i`ve bought that to try it as it was quite cheap, cheers mate.
Steve, that Beasley Composites site has some good stuff on it too, wasn`t aware of them so many thanks for the info.
Mick, if you can get a pic i still may be interested, thanks all for your helpful replies. :up

The Ebay one never turned up, and the guy hasn`t replied to my e-mail :evil: . So i`m still after a front mudguard, preferably the short chrome type if anyone has one it would be much appreciated. 18'' front wheel by the way. :up
