Colorado December - Nice Ride

Jerry Doe · Dec 4, 2021

Had a great blast on the 750 today, about 100 miles. Loving this December weather. Making the most of it before the snow. Have a good weekend everyone.

Any problems with running that front mudguard so close to the tyre?

Yes, brilliant riding weather here. The front is a cNw. It works very well.

None, except it does not work very well. I have the original and am thinking about putting it back on. A bit overloaded on garage projects at the moment to find the time…

I used one with a 100/90 19 Roadrider and it did rub. I believe the 325/19 is fine.

The standard guard and two stays works like a fork brace. Maybe not as good as the Norman Hyde type but better than a fiberglass guard.

I used to run a close fitting front mudguard on my commando
Every time I got above 90 odd mph I heard a droning noise
I couldn't work out what it was!
Then one day I was looking around the bike again after a particularly bad droning I noticed there was a patch of paint bubble up on the front guard
I have yam fz750 forks the mudguard bolts on downwards
I put 6mm stainless packers under the mounts to stop it
