Has anyone tried any of these?

[snerkler]

As the title says really. If so what are the pros and cons? (apart from stopping crud)
Cheers

Used option 2 it works

How easy are they to fit, and how do they look on the bike?

I guess I should have been more specific

These are the questions I want to know really
1) Do they look OK, or do they look cheap and nasty?
2) How easy are they to fit?
3) How effective are they

Cheers

V easy to fit and a cheap way of keeping crud off the engine. I have the same fitted BMW and Tiger. Makes a huge difference on th Tiger because exhausts are behind front wheel.

I've got number 2 fitted......

1.).. Looks..... No problem...

2. ) Fits in about 2 minutes... Clean inside of mudguard, peel off tape, stick on, drill 4 small holes, screw in screws... Even a non techy hamfisted bugger like me can do it !!

3.) Yeh it works... stops as much spray coming up onto the engine..

Thanks, are you referring to the number 2 option (waits for some childish jokes )

I know what you mean about the Tiger, it was a pain with the exhausts and radiator.

Yes a number 2 option, I will refrain from making any turdish jokes

I had a fender extender fitted by the dealer before I collected the bike.

To completely protect the lower engine I also fitted a Mark Hooton Crud Catcher (available on this site and a VERY effective and well made piece of kit)

Maybe over kill but I'm happy

Sorry picci is a bit big!

Have ordered a fender extender from Nippy's, went for the cheaper option
Thought about the crud catcher but not my cup of tea aesthetically I'm afraid
How are you getting on with your new bike? I'm loving mine overall
Popped into Rainbow on saturday, man was that place busy.

I fitted no. 2 (the Wunderlich one) - I opted to rivet the extender with four small rivets as the self-tapping screw option didn't seem too clever and looked a bit ugly.

Bit pricey for a bit of plasic but works well and keeps most of rubbish off the front case.

 

[peejay]

Fitted Fenda Extenda on mine, quick 'n' easy
It's longer than the one I fitted on my 1150gsa, and that worked a treat.

Cool, thanks. Nice bike

Sorry but off topic, I know.

C-J - The Beowulf can looks great. I've been looking at them recently. Is that the Black Stainless option? Does it fit OK with the Vario panniers? - I was planning on visiting Beowulf next week to see a can in the flesh as I will be in Halifax, near where they are. If they're as nice close up as in your pic, I may have to get the credit card out.
