Aftermarket Fenders

Back in the day, there were plastic aftermarket body parts available for UJM's. The sport cafe fairing and streamlined front fender were most common. I can find the cafe fairing (hell, there's a couple in my garage) but no fenders. These were slimline front fenders typically held to the forks with hose clamps or zip ties (I think we had zip ties back then). Anybody seen them?

See my ad in for sale section. Includes an aftermarket fender.

so that aftermarket fender that fits a KZ400 will fit a bird?

Sure, it fits a 'bird with a KZ 400 front end. I don't know what you read into the info given but I saw UJM mentioned, not 'bird.

So what's the intended use?

Back in the day, I got my fiberglass fender from Spec II.

Interesting site...spent some time there. Scant fender information, looks like they need a new webmaster.

Thanks, Donnie...I'll have to check out the 600's. Lots of used stuff for them on egay and the forums.

Thanks for the direction. Not quite the type of fender I was looking for. Its for an XX, but I say UJM because I've never seen that type of fender available for an XX, so adapting would be needed. Something a little different was the idea.

Hey, everything fits...just depends on how much time and welding rod ya got!

Might have to go to JC Witney for something like that!

Not a bad idea. There website's been down for a couple days, though. Wonder what's up with that?

Edit.......I did find a few good matches at the Racetech and Maier bodywork sites. Still pricier than what I had hoped. I should probably just cut down an XX fender and see if I can get a different vibe out of that.

I did exactly that several years ago. You may not remember but I cut a front fender to look like a bird's beak?
