My new(er) front zx10 fender
I decided to do the ZX10 fender treatment to my 14. I got it used from Gilbert with ok brakets but fine for the money I spent. I went to the local automotive paint store and got the fender to match my bike pretty good. The painting was done while it was snowing and I didnt think it would turn out so nice with the many applications of paint and clear coat while it was so cold and damp. But it was all good.
The bike seems to run cooler and the front dosent look so "freakin fat". I am thinking of painting the side fender panels silver as well...

if you paint the sides, the fender will look larger, black makes everything appear smaller.

Knydecker you or any of the other zx10 front fender converts wouldn't want to sell the little wings that attach to the stock 14's fender would you? I might be open to buying. The whole fender if it was priced right.
