Front mudguard of an ST required, believe a Mk2 is the same but happy to be corrected if that is not the case [everything else on the ST is .0003mm different so no reason its not this time].

If there is anything else out there that fits please let me know, I can build up extra knowledge on the ST database.... :wink:

ST has a leading front axle mate so sorry, mk2 won't fit. I found all this out when I had mine. :x

mmm, rarer than I thought.
In that case, I can modify up another mudguard with a similar radius, seem to be a lot of specials out there with trick front mudguards but a lot of them are plastic, I was under the impression the Z solid number acted as a little brace so wanted sturdy metal.

Anyone any ideas for something I can butcher, I mean modify?

Depends on what you are trying to do V. But , i've had to put a chrome 1 on my z1r.
I was also told it had to be metal to act as a "brace".
You could always add a fork brace? The micron ones look good and keep popping up on here,(i've missed out on 2 :oops: )
Good luck, freddy

Thanks Freddy and Yeloow, at the moment i have one bike that will be a dry run bike only if i do not get some kind of mudguard on it, i know the original is solid and strong and acts like a bit of a brace ( I too have been hunting for a micron or telefix or similar but no luck so far) :??

If you have a spare one Yellow then biscuits and beer tokens can be made available, all in a good cause you know :wink:

If I cannot sort a mudguard then for the while it will be a dry run bike which may not be a prob, could look pretty mean but I think some kind of brace must be required.
Thanks for the replies, much appreciated :lol:
