Hey guys, does anyone know where I can find a short front fender that will fit my 77 KZ650? I'd like to find something similar to what's in the picture.

make a cardboard template of the curve on the front and rear of the fender, slide it back however short you want it tape trace and cut with angle grinder.
sand the rough edge with some sandpaper.

thats how the pros make em, and you dont gotta worry about mounting. Plus its alot cooler and cheaper if you make it yourself.

Ive seen it done on some fenders and motorcycle windshields.
