This practical set makes it easy to install a customized, lightweight fender made of steel, aluminum or carbon.
It consists of a pair of lasered universal brackets, inspired by the shape of the Y-clamps of the legendary Norton MANX, and a set of stainless steel screws and locking nuts.
The fender shown is not included in delivery.
The generously dimensioned base plates make them universally suitable for the mounting points of most motorcycle forks (see illustration for dimensions).
Suitable for all BMW R models with 2 spring struts (Duolever).
Assembly
- First, the mudguard is fixed in the desired position on the front wheel.
As with all subsequent steps, it is important to ensure that there is sufficient
Distance to all components and especially to the tire must be observed.
- To determine the sufficient distance between the tire and the fender, for example,
a rubber profile or the like (see Fig. 4).
- The two Y-brackets are then fixed, but not drilled yet.
The overhang above the fender edge should be at least 30mm.
- Now the bending edges of the Y-clamp are marked and then
To create an arched bend following the fender cross-section
The upper part of the two arms can be reached by light hammer blows
into shape. A sledgehammer and a wooden block are also suitable for this purpose.
(see Fig. 5).
- If hard bending edges are required and no bending machine is available
The workpiece is machined directly on the edge using a (hard) wooden block
(see Fig. 6).
- Now the mounting holes in the fender can be marked and drilled with a 6mm
The distance from the edge of the fender should be
not less than 15mm (see Fig. 7).
- The two clamps can also be installed underneath the fender, depending on your taste
(see Fig. 2 and 3).
- Place the mudguard with the two mounted clamps back onto the front wheel.
Now the assembled fender can be attached to the two mounting points of the
Fork tubes are mounted, if necessary after spacer sleeves are mounted
or the Y-brackets have been given an additional bending edge.
- Any excess material on the support plate can then be removed
(see Fig.8).
