I just ordered the MIZ front fender for my 2024 standard. Orderd the black painted one. Wondering if anyone has bought this fender. I ordered it through Samurider with Mr.T. He said it would be about three weeks being that they are made to order. This is my first purchase with samurider. I think this will really complete my look for the bike. I love the lines of the bike and the concept of the Retro theme except for a couple things here and there. I think the bike was made a little more Retro than I like so now it will have a Retro look with a modern day cafe twist. I was stopped at a light next to a car full of teenagers the other day and they rolled the window down and said what a really cool looking bike man. I laughed and gave them the thumbs up and thanked them. Nice to see the young crowd appriciate the bike.
Please post a pic of that 2024 Standard. I want to see what my next new bike will be
If I'm still alive that is
The ferret with yell at me for posting too many pics after he showed me how to, lol. I will post up pics when I get the front fender. I have several pics of the current mods up on a couple threads so far. You can see it in the chic cafe seat and rear fender thread.
Sorry for the spelling mistakes as my three year old daughter is kicking me in the face as I'm trying to type, lol.
I was watching some video on the cb1100 and comparing to the xjr1300 by Yamaha. I love the look of the xjr because I find it to be the perfect look between modern and Retro. I love the seat cowl, the bars, tank and front and rear looks of that bike. With the new fenders on my CB and the cafe seat and maybe a future bar change I think it will be right there. I looked further into the xjr and first off knowing its not offered to us in the US I can't have it anyway. I started to notice its flaws. First off its a five speed and no ABS is offered. I don't have ABS anyway. The xjr is only a five speed which is OK. It only has about 5 to 7 more HP than the CB1100 and its a 1251cc. It has a plastic tank which can lead to problems with ethanol in the gas and has a very basic minimal guage cluster and info computer. Over all the xjr seems to have a lot more plastic and money saving corners cut.

Mr. T gave me a MIZ front fender in red as a Christmas present for being the 2014 customer of the year. It's nicely made and fits perfectly. The finish is flawless. I think the black one will look good on your bike but we won't know for sure until it arrives and you can share some pictures.
I suggest you wear your helmet as you type. Safety first.
Looking forward to seeing the pics!
Looking good all blacked out.
Very nice!
I just got one recently, too, but am waiting to get all my recent buys installed before posting pics.
It's a great looking accessory, and seems really well made.
P.S. What FEK are you using?
