High Fender
 
A mix of mud and stones are somtimes making a lot of noise on the origanal tenere fender.
I was thinking of adding a high fender to my Tenere.

I like this one, but in white colour. Its a bit shorter than the usual crossfender. (I dont want to take off :-))

I have measured the holes in the bottom yoke of the triple clamp. The hole centres match the same as a WR/YZF moto-x/enduro bike.
So I reckon that a pre-drilled mudguard from the like of UFO or Acerbis will fit.
The only short fall will be the back part of the mudguard will be hitting the radiator grill. I think I will cut the read of the mudguard away......:017:

Ok, here is my high fender try out. Its actualy a Supermotard fender. I just drilled four holes in it.
It takes 10 minutes to switch the fenders. Low fender is better for allday use (riding in rain)
I kept the Yamaha towing-ring
But maybe it would look better in white?
Whats your opinion?

Very *******. (p h a l l i c)

Looking good, but yes should be white. Have you tested any water crossing and if it splash less up the gap behind the cockpit?

Actually that doesn't look so bad afterall (although I agree it should be colour matched)... I have a black Pollisport KTM supermoto front mudguard kicking around, I might give that a go...

Taste
 
I also think a high fender looks better.

See my avatar pic. Its a standard fender from UFO. The holes are also standard. I mounted the tow hook upside down at the top of the fender.

Don�t miss the fromt breakline holder as you mount the new one!
