Title: My 2006 GS500F Fenderectomy & Rear Reflector Mod.
Post by: Fausty0 on April 27, 2011, 06:04:14 PM
I could not stand the Mud-Flap look anymore so, I went out and bought a Dremel and went to work with a ruler and an Idea of how I wanted the bike to look cleaner but keep the work simple and this is what I came up with.

Did this to my bike as well. Went for a ride today with another GStwins member up a twisty mountain road in the rain. His bike still had the fender and what do you know it actually does something. Mine was covered in spray and mud while his was completely dry. Just don't take a pillion in the wet, they won't be happy lol.
