Front Fender Splash Guard

[Wagonpeddler_imp]

Due to the rather short front fender, it allows dirt, mud, etc. to collect on the bottom of the engine, and headers. Anyone know of a mud flap, splash guard, or similar lower fender extension that would attach without drilling holes in the fender?
Thanks!

Fenda Extenda, I have on both of my CBs, perfect fitting and performance = NO drilling.

Thanks PB.
I highly recommend this front fender accessory. I have one on both of my Honda's.
I attached mine with marine grade J B Weld and they'll never come off.

Most are affixed with grey 3M VHB foam tape.

I also used JB Weld.

That's perfect!
Many thanks.
Nice bike, PB.

Used 3M VHB tape on mine, holds just fine.

Totally agree. JB Weld would be overkill.

I used 3m 4200 or 5200 (can’t remember exactly now) fast cure on mine.

Necessary to remove the front fender to attach the splash guard?

I don't know how others did it, but I removed the fender which made it so much easier to work on.

 

[Lord Popgun]

I think it can be done without removing it, but, like Rocky, I removed mine for the install.

+1, for perfect fit

Ordered today.

... of course now that you have the front fender extender, you can now do more wet riding.

I've had one on all my bikes but have always thought they should be a little longer. I did modify a longer scooter back guard to fit a Yamaha Bulldog and it was perfect at keeping the engine clean.

 

[GoldOxide_imp]

With over five decades of mostly beautiful manufacturer inline-4 design, if keeping the lump and pipes clean was important to the operation of the machine, they would have thought of something more generic up to help owners (not including full fairing tourers). That maybe would have included extending the front fender - as some members do like in this thread. So why wouldn't the manufacturers? To save metal cost? To save plastic fender cost? Is there a more practical or technical operational explanation?

Modern motorcycle mudguards(fenders) IMO are clearly designed by people who don't ride motorcycles LOL
I think sad but true

The best guards are on scooters and GoldWings. Ah heck, Indian motorcycles too.
