Front fender transplant

Post by rlprell »

Does anyone know if the Rockster front fender will fit on a Roadster?

IIRC, no. the fittings are different - but I might be wrong.

The rockster has the front forks sourced from a R1100S and there are many differences.

So ...no! ( Of course I have never tried to do it so could maybe?! be fitted :-)

Ah, yes. I remember reading that when searching for a Rockster last year - brain dead, I guess. Thanks for the replies. I was hoping to remove the R's beak and replace it with something more traditional. Mmm...Maybe one from a GS......

My personal favorite would be rivi7777's RS alternative, which looks great in black.
