Hi, apologies if this has been done to death , did a search & didn't really find anything.

Anyway, my early Atlas with 7in fork centres is in need of guards F&R guards.

Front 1st, any around in Australia pref or does anyone know if any Commando guard will fit ?, I assume not as all Commando's are 7 3/8 , does anyone do a decent guard that fits ?

Rears, any around , pref in Australia ?

TIA

What is a decent guard? A flat blade mudguard as per Commando design? The factory design is a hallmark of the Atlas/650SS and I suggest you keep the design, unless you want to create a caf'e bike.
Factory fitted mudguard had spart part no. NM24985D.

There are several sources for repro oem style mudguards and if need be, switching fork yokes to the later ones (7-3/8") is a simple task. They are easy to come by, and there are also fork yokes made of aluminium available, if you fancy an upgrade.

One source for narrow yoke steel mudguards to the genuine shape is Burton Bike Bits:

Mudguards for the wider yokes may be found here:
Vintage Spare Parts (India)
Norvil Motorcycles

I hope this helps.
