TurboJoe Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 With my front end swapped, I need to decide on a fender.... Questions: 1) Anyone running a ZX14 fender?? Any added heat issues??? 2) Does the ZX10 fender cause the stability issues (..front end lift) on a XX as the ZX14 guys claim? 3) Any other known fenders adaptable to Zx14 fork/SP1 triple combo??? I have purchased a zx10 fender but it is returnable...It is very minimal but looks OK. I like the looks of the ZX14 fender too (especially the side profile).

IcePrick Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I have a Chinese carbon fiber ZX-10 fender that looks like da bomb. If I'm ever going fast enough to get the front end to lift because of the aerodynamics of the fender, I will have accomplished every goal in life.

TurboJoe Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 I was afraid that was squid rider discussion so i came back to a forum of guys I trust :-) They also claim of over exposure to the radiator to rocks and debris....OMG you can't have your cake and eat it too. I will look for a mesh grill for the radiator...If anyone knows of a good one let me know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboJoe Posted March 28, 2014 Author Share Posted March 28, 2014 Ended up with a "Carbon" ZX14 fender...I am happy with the looks. Not as streamlined as the 10 fender but its a very nice piece. John01XX thanks for pointing me to the rad grille....I like that and it has a reasonable price. Poida...I find a lot of Aussie parts I like buy the shipping is extreme every time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
