Rear mudguard fender snapped off my GSA

[mikef]

Not sure how it happened but the rear mudguard fender on my 2016 GSA snapped off the other day whilst I was out riding. I know this because, by chance, I happened to see it bouncing on the road behind me in the nearside mirror. On inspection, it seems to have snapped off at the securing bolts on the shaftdrive unit

Leaving aside the reason why it snapped off, the question is what to replace it with. Of course I could pay a kings ransom to buy a replacement from my local BMW stealer but I was wondering if there were any aftermarket alternatives. Can't find a replacement on Nippy Normans. Anyone got any other ideas?

Best replacing it with a pre LC model, that way you'll have no mudguard or fork issues

Really daddypaddy is that the look of the green eyed monster there ?..
Took mine off as all it does is throw shit back at the bike, just put a tt plate thing if I remember rightly behind the number plate works a treat

Surely you could claim a new one under warranty

How much is a new one ? They might not be that expensive.

Exactly....

I remember when idiots used to pay strong money (above new price) for used 1150 Adventure beaks on eBay to put on their standard GS. The were cheap at something silly like £25 new from BMW.

Just put 3 bolts in

Stick it back on with pink grip.

Might work on the forks as well if they fall off
