Hey thanks! Your posts were extremely helpful, without which this wouldnt have gotten done.

So anyway today I modded this mod!

Check it out: A bigger zx14 fender!

what the heck is that?!...

Just a mudflap from Pepboys. Highland splash guard 18" x 12" cut to my exact specs. Well not really I just messed around with it. Cut it a few times until I liked it. At first I really thought it wasnt going to work at all but after some work Im kinda happy with it.

I wanted a bit more coverage because I do tend to get caught in a lot of rain.

Like the look without fenders but I like my fenders more , try not to do much riding I the rain but still happens and they do keep ya dry.

Nice work! It really fills in nice, especially around that lower rear reflector that normally just looks like its "hanging"..

I don't know... I'm not feeling the no fenders look but I have a 2013 and the new style fenders look very cool. As long as you like it that is all that matters! Ride on and enjoy!

Those new fenders do look cool. Might have to see about retrofitting when I finally get my divorce paid off.

Thanks.
I must have Mis-read. Thought you were saying that people were having problems with contact. Sorry about that!
You do have to run the zx14 fender as far back as you can and it does fit up better with the BRP sport rack installed.

For fronts I'm a big fanboy of the 2013 fenders......however, it "might" be a problem when doing new front tires as there is now less clearance. Wondering if slightly larger and more readily available larger sized 14" tires will fit. Probably be forced to go to the 15" wheels or stay with the stock kenda tires....blah.

I put on a set of General 185/60R14's and they fit tight, but they fit....and have loved the way they handle.

LOVE your chrome rear wheel and sprocket. Where did you get that or did you have yours chromed?

[Ken Thomas]

Yes but it's hell on the helmet

WE do't wear helmets !!

[daltmeyer]

Jcthorne, thanks!

The wheels and sprocket was already chromed when I bought it used.

I wasn't too fond of the Chrome at first but its really grown on me. I even added some more to finish it up.
