18” alloy/aluminum fenders
I am looking to get some “sportier” fenders for my R51/3. It currently has heavy deep valance steel fenders.
There is a bike recycler near me and I was wondering if anyone could point me to a model/year bike I can get some 18” aluminum fenders with less valance. Thanks removed "alloy" r50us68 screwed with this post 01-13-2011 at 08:04 AM |

Oh God! You used the word ALLOY!
Alloy doesn't mean aluminum rant ensues in 3.......2.......1.....

Mostly brit bikes had the alloy fenders. You may have better luck with walridge.com or clubmanracing.com

I had been to clubmanracing.com but could not find where to find the fenders.

There's a lot of chopper/bobber vendors that offer aluminum fenders for custom jobs. Don't know if that's what you are looking for, but J & P Cycles have them in different radiuses, and other vendors do too. these are modeled on the British style. J & P has an online catalog.
