Anyone recognize this fender?
Hello all,
I picked up this 02 standard with a aftermarket rear fender. Anyone recognize who might make it? I am not too keen on the fender so I am looking to find the specs for it to find out if I can fit a 200 tire beneath it or if I should start looking at different fenders.
Thanks

I believe the 02 still came with the 150 rear tire, if so......
It looks like the frame horns have been cut off.
If that is the case than a 200 will fit in the swing arm. You will have to center the wheel and machine some new spacers. If the belt causes a clearance issue you can go with the new 7/8"(?) belt. You will need a self supporting fender that either bolts on under the seat or uses the bolt holes along the side of the seat. I have machined the OEM 1 piece caliper down to allow its use. I prefer an aftermarket brake caliper setup that is a two piece assembly. This allows you to remove the caliper prior to trying to remove the rear wheel.
If the frame horns are indeed there a 180 will fit with the use of a fender that bolts on OVER the frame horns as opposed to inside of them. The wheel spacing and caliper scenarios are the same as with a 200.
