No kidding! What's the story behind that one?

Had to swerve to avoid hitting a damn cat 8-)


Oh man I should of never started that dang cat thread!

Hey changing the subject-a little Gmooby won bike of the month over on the 2StrokeWorld site. He is so modest I thought I should post their mast head.

thats how they came in Aus and its as original as I can keep it except for the rear shocks (I like it to go around corners in reasonable safety) I do admit they look a lot better without it and were not designed to have them I would think,urs Al in Aus, PS do you like the map of Australia :wave:

Beautiful bike Al, hope mine turns out half as good! I cut my rear fender off and painted it black a week after I got my bike in '72! That short guard is going on my current bike - but then, it's not going to be a stock rebuild!

Fully agree, the best bike in the world... blue -72 hooked me obviously forever to H2:s.

The fender thing is interesting, so it is not a eurofender, it is "the rest of the world-fender". Somehow U.S. bikes do look a little naked due to lack of fender, naturally its just because of i am used to it - as you AER005 said, it is originally been there.

Btw Australia is beautiful continent, been there a couple of times.

Yes, and New Zealand triples have rear fenders too.
I agree they look better without. My 500 fenders a bit shoddy so i took it off but ill need one for my restoration. Of coarse theres none on US ebay so i gave up looking.
