Front fender

NastyNick:
Anybody watch Anaheim   1 supercross races on the tube (or where lucky enough to be there)?  Real mudy race if you didn't catch it.  The reason why I bring that up is that alot of the racers were running womens panyhose on their radiators louvers to prevent mud buildup.

Good tip and inexpensive for those occasional rides/races in the mud.  Keep a pair of old pantyhose around.  Just try to explain to your wife when she catches you with nylons that aren't for her! :)

I am using a front fender from a 2005 KX250.  Looks great.  However, if you run the front number plate without a light, you will need to use a hair dryer to heat the plate to reform it to fit on top of the new style fender.  A lot less work to modify than the rear fender.
