Holan Carbon Rear Mudguard

[BamBam]

Have just ordered a new Holan rear mudguard in carbon fibre and it includes the rear light from these guys
http://holan.pl/en/product/1/9/416/479/2017/rear_mudguard_Rally_for_HP2



with all the battering she's been getting the aim is to strip expensive glass and plastic off and replace with lighter and less costly aftermarket gear and save the stock stuff.

When it arrives will do a picture write up

Getting ready for next season.


So handle Bar cylinders for brake and clutch short levers folding on impact any ideas
And if things go well Max BMW R1200 3.0 Final Drive Upgrade to complement the 18" woodies rear end,

If you want short folding brake and clutch levers - try ASV Levers. http://asvinventions.com/index.php
I put a set on my XR400 and they're brilliant

Do they still work with handguards fitted ??? the guards would stop them folding back

 

[oziexplorer]

I usually position my levers for standing, so they generally don't intrude.
Saying that I haven't fitted a set of these to the HP2, but I'm thinking about it as I'm not too impressed with the Vario levers, as the adjustment knob seems to keep turning and I cannot seem to get it to stop - yes I tried to put a bit of loctite in there but no luck

Hi Bambam

,

Is this actually cheaper? Carbon would look nice. Looking forward to pics.

BamBam, Any update? I was told by Holan the install is not reversible? Maybe you have to cut up the stock fender? Thanks for any info. Very expensive also over here. $540.00. Ouch.

Hi Maineroads,
you are correct in thinking that you have to cut the rear mudgaurd.
I bought a spare from BMW UK as BMW USA will not ship outside USA, Cost me £69 or in bucks $113.

Cut down Stock rear mudgaurd, and cut down Holan licence plate holder( let the flexable plate take the shit!)



Top view, with flexable 650X Challange indicators



SEXY indicators

fitting not for the faint hearted

It was a long journey so here's a simplistic pictorial


Strip out the OME rear end


Attach the new alli frame this was a breezy


Scribe a line to cut too, and remove the mudguard for cutting


A micro blade in my grinder and cut


Re fit the mudguard, and it's advise I also need to shape it to get a good look

 

[BamBam]

Trimmed and ready to fit (my mudguard had split and now its trimmed out)


This is a idea of how much trimming, shaping was needed. Not difficult if you are happy wielding a grinder I stick to a blade for shaping and then a small sander in the drill


Well it really gets tricky now, A piece of string to line things up, with the seat acting a pinch to keep things in place


Mark, but to be honest I did not want to get it wrong so drilled institute with a perfect size drill bit for the holes already in the mount


Drilled and what a pain it was to align it all up nerve racking just to fit a peace of carbon

I will say at this point a pr-drilled unit could end in tears as a lot HP2’s have had a hard life, and could possibly not be quite the same shape a Mr BMW sold it to you in So perceiver

 

[BamBam]

Licence plate holder indicator hole pre-drilled, with the KTM light fitted


I used double side sticky foam tape for fitting/aligning, and when you have that done drill just like the fixing to the frame

Now I decided cut down the licence plate holder (see earlier pic) as I have a flexible plate and feel if your hit the plate the plate should flex, not the carbon mudgaurd
X Challenge flexible indicators for the same reason, they fit with some grease a push a twist through Holan's pre-drilled hole, but you need to drill the 'hold them in place BMW hole'.
No trip to BMW as they work as a direct replacement.

I went for the KTM LED rear lamp as I like the shape.
This has been hard work and is not yet finished AS THIS IS NOT COMPATABLE WITH THE CANBUS. Went to BMW to get it switched on and they couldn't but not thier fault.
I have had to fit a adjustable resistor and a relay to fool the BMW electrics, I now have a rear light and brake light. but need to get the correct resistor and tidy that wiring mess up.

I like the look, but it’s a fiddly installation, if you like the look it's worth the trouble.
Now I have it all in place its off to the Acerbis dealer for a blue plastic one for racing carbon for the pose :cool

Thank you, you have the advantage with OME prices, It was fun to fit
even with a life long addiction to Cutting things up and custom work you need to be prepared to get your hands dirty but over all I love it.
As with every thing it realy pisses me off that I have to get my own tarx bolts to keep the stock tools... but hay Touratech are the same Just not cricket old chap
