New Front Fender for the Landsegler Wheels
I wanted to run the disc fork with my Landsegler wheels, the one problem stopping me was the lack of a mudguard for the disc wheel, I set about looking on ebay, and eventually went for a Yamaha R6 front fender, straight way I could see it was too wide for my fork, about 20mm, so I cut a slit in the fender either side so it would fit.
My problem then was, how do I attach the fender, well I fabricated some stainless brackets up to used the original fixing points on the fender, once bolted together the fender was rock solid. I finished it off making a mud flap at the bottom from a heavey duty vinyl floor tile.

- Hopefully this will stop the worst

-
- I was pleased with the result, it still needed a mud flap at the bottom
-
- Fixed the brackets
-
- Drilled and tapped some m6 holes in the fork legs
-
- The bracket and an opposite one for the other side

- Tricky to make but I got there in the end
-
- I fabricated some brackets up to fix the fender
-
- It was too wide so I cut some slots in either side
-
- I purchased a Yamaha R6 front fender from EBay
Now see the fender re-sprayed and finished.
