Fender extender

[Mullabrack]

Anyone recommend a quality fender extender for an XR. Someone does a version with the plastic type pop in fasteners as opposed to screws but I can’t remember who it is. Any help appreciated..

I started off with a R and G one but it was too heavy, felt “loose” and I found it caused a vibration onto the front mud guard.

I ended up changing to a Wunderlich one which also secures onto the brake calliper housing - rock solid and no vibration. They were about £90 and well worth the money I think.

Thanks Colin. Had looked at that one but wasn’t sure how well it followed the curve on the mudguard but looking at your picture it looks perfect.

I have the r and g one. Leasky is right, it shakes like a nutter but I have put up with it. Do intend to change it at some point.

Hey Colin,

Where did you purchase this one from?


Thanks,
Andy

I meant, This one !

If memory serves me correctly, it was from Nippy Norman’s but I see they don’t stock them anymore .

The Wunderlich DE site has them at this time though (€100 / £90) and well worth the money as it does wonders in keeping the shite off the front of the engine.

NN Does stock them but they appear under the R1200RS model. However, it is the same thing (Wunderlich part no. 44790-102) for ninety quid, including postage.

I like the look of these so I'm going to fit one.

Good stuff Andy, I am pleased you were able to find it.

It does a cracking job, is very well made and doesn’t look too bad on the bike at all.

So how much would this avoid fitting oil/rad guard ??
Does it protect - or just look like it does.

 

[leasky]

I would still fit the other guards so as to protect against detritus being thrown up by other vehicles.

Just bought myself this. Chuffing expensive I know, but treating myself. Will fit it today. I had a plastic extender fitted, and it wobbled around like hell, hitting the wheel etc. It’s not as long as the extended mudguard but longer than standard.

Have fitted the carbon fibre mudguard. Looks the business I must say.
