I'm looking for a fender for a 2004 gs500f. I have started doing all the final repairs to the bike and I am in need of a black or yellow fender. I don't know what years will match this bike. I found one on ebay motors that was off of an 07 but when I went to search OEM parts on bike bandits site the two fenders part numbers didn't match up. Hopefully one of you guys has one or knows a great place to get one. I've already tried my local bent bike, they suck...Thanks ahead of time, if you have one just pm me a picture and a price and I'll pay you however you would prefer.

Any year fender will work. Early ones had 2 holes to mount a mud flap (a good thing to have - keeps the bike cleaner and it looks cool.) Some early ones had another hole for a rubber thing that was a speedo cable guide. You can ignore it or use the rubber thing that goes there. I don't know if I have a good black one (that doesn't need painting) until I check inventory. I do have ones I know are physically good but need painting.

Thanks for your quick response. Yea, I would just prefer to get one in good condition that fits. If I had more time I would paint it but I am trying to get this bike in selling condition so that I can pay for Hospital bills for the wife when we have our kid this April. Thanks again.

Awesome, its kinda hard to see from the picture how many scratches/dings it has. I'm definitely interested in this. Please get back to me when you get home. PM me a price and a better picture if possible. I can paypal the money Today. Also in the market for some aftermarket blinkers, front and rear, possible a fender eliminator?

If you're going to sell it, you should stay with stock rear fender. If the new owner wants to chop it, they can. Some people like the longer fender (like here in wet Seattle).
I do have 2 fenders that have been shopped off. Decent job. I can send pix later if interested.
I have all the reflectors that belong on the bike and their mounting brackets & bolts.

A bike that is as stock and complete as possible will fetch abetter price. If modified, people may have to un-do the mods and they don't now what else has been done so it tends to lower the price and scare some people away.

The bike is the 2004 Gs500F, I took the cracked fairings off and mounted a round headlight. I know I don't want stock Lights on the bike cause the stock ones for the 500f model mounted to the fairing in the front. The fender has already been cut, looks kinda ghetto and am looking for a cleaner look. Pictures would be great adidas guy, of the stock reflectors also. Thanks.

I'll do pix of the rear fenders I have and look at my stock of front fenders.
You can get the 2001-2002 front blinkers. They have the longer stalk because the 01-02 was a naked "F" model. I put them on all my bikes to replace the older style turn signals. You could get a set of 1989-2000 turn signals.
Here's one of the front ones. Search ebay more and you can probably find a set of front ones for not much. I have plenty of the orange lenses because I replaced all my lenses with smoked ones from Germany

Have this fender. Slight heat blemish on the back about the size of a quarter. Overall pretty nice. Buff it a little and nearly new. The hole is for the rubber speedo cable guide, which I have for it. The blemish is to the right of the hole. - $20 + shipping


Reflectors: Have a lot. Front can be round  (if newer forks), or rectangle triple mount or round with band for mounting on fork. Also have license plate mounts (I don't use them as I put plate flat on the rear fender. Same for rear reflector ifyou see pix of my bikes.) $2 per reflector + shipping


Fender: Have 3 that have been chopped. Anyone can have them. Just pay shipping. Otherwise, they go to recycling next month.
