Title: Pics of GS's with NON GS front fenders?
Post by: Jackstand Johnny on June 26, 2008, 02:13:56 AM
I wanna see what my 89 GS would look like with a different front fender on it. ESPECIALLY one that bolts right up, anyone have some pics?

Please do. I'm really good at seeing the potential in a vehicle, Thats why I wanted a GS in the first place.

Dude, your bike looks great! I suppose I'd have to compare the two front fenders up close to get a really good look at which one I like more. There's a few things about your 89 that I'd like to model mine after.

Here is the 88-97 Kat fender on my 97. It is on Kat forks but fits the GS forks as well. I need to take some newer pics. Nice thing about the Kat fender is that there is plenty of material if you want to trim it to your own design. I just have not modded one yet.

Hey D, did you paint that fender in the picture? If so, what did you use?

Yes. I painted it with Eastwood Extreme Chassis Black. It is an epoxy spray paint.
