pretty straight forward... unless someones chopped up the rear of your frame, here:

the rear fender mounts on the end of the actual frame, the rest after that is the subframe which you dont need to have to have the rear fender on..

ooo i see :) no my rear plastic is chopped up thats why it dsnt seam righton where the seat is. i will take some pictures to show you.

sebamax2 · Guru

and also my side panels dont seam to hide underneeth the seat so easly, i want to get everything propaly alined before i fiberglass the rear fender

Reef · Guru

On the ride side mind don't sit under the seat properly so drilled a hole at the top of the panel where it should sit behind the seat and then cable it tied to the frame, brought it in to the way it should sit

sebamax2 · Guru

can you see how the side panels are and how the seat is. they are wayy off

MDK · DTR Legend

would I be right in thinking you mean the front of the side pannels is lower ? are they bolted to the airbox ? that would lift or be lifted once carb ect in ?

Reef · Guru

Lol that's how there designed from factory, I know you have a hpires but the side panels sit lower than the rear fender either way?? Lol

Calum122 · Guru

Your panels won't fit if you're using hpires rear fender the dtre panels won't fit. Dtre panels all interlock with one another.

Reef · Guru

if you look in his pic attached closely looks like hes cut down the rear fender that much so that he can have the rear side panels locking into the rear fender, see what i mean, which would explain why he's using fiber glass for the hpires?? think im right on that 1

sebamax2 · Guru

yes ur correct the standard is cut down and hpires is going to be fiberglassed to if. i need to fiddle with the side panels a little bit more to get them alined a bit better, and find a way to make the tail look good, it looks like the frame has to be cut down to make it looke like this one. but as you can see his rear side panels fit right under the seat

sebamax2 · Guru

looking at this picture closly i think my tank might be way up. need to look at that in the morning to see whats going on

MDK · DTR Legend

so once done how to you go about getting to battery fast ? I know been loads of times I had to take pannel of for fuse or battery problems ?
your gona have to remove seat and all sides and fender by the side of road if need be ?

sebamax2 · Guru

no the rear side panels stay as original. imagine the original rear fender cut off just after where the seat is and than the hpires glued onto it :) so it would be just as if there was an original fender there

sebamax2 · Guru

oh i know what you meant, on the circled one it looks like its all a 1 unit.

sebamax2 · Guru

there you go guys some hard sanding down and it looks like factory :D

Gambodia · DTR Senior Member

would you consider selling your fender/making one to sell?

sebamax2 · Guru

let me know your price mate but the parts on their own are quiet expensive, hpires fender standar fender fiberglass filler sanding paper etc, i have got a yz fender and i could try making one from that
