86 T3 Fender Stay

[Ragar]

My fender stay is missing the fender bits. I saw some in the 3ww shop just curious if anyone else makes one? or has one they want to let go?

Sorry you lost me on this one...the what and the what?? Lol...are you talking about the rear fender brace?

[Ragar]

Yeah, Kawi calls it a fender stay, the Arms that hold the rear fender from flopping around are busted off on mine.

Yikes, $180 for a bracket?

the Shipping kills it lol.

Ill invest in one down the road, might just have to make something up for now

You know what is sad, but they are often broken, thus somewhat rare and hard to find, thus why people make them and sell them.

OEM used bent rusted ones have often fetched over $100 in the past.

That stainless steel one looks strong and awesome. Since people are trying to sell rear fenders for $1000 the fender stay prtection is good insurance. lol. But you are right the parts prices are crazy, but they are for most toys. Most of my Tecates came with terrible hack job home made fender stays or were broken.

Its kinda sad when Mechanical parts are cheaper then cosmetic.

I rejeted the Carb on mine today
Bumped up the Main and Idle jet.
Its Running a UNI filiter, stock AIr box, Stock(im pretty sure) chamber and a staight threw Answer Silencer.
Im also running in the cold. Thoughts?

[nd4speed]

Not really, you got a good deal. Just ride it!

Have you posted any more pictures of it?

[Ragar]

Ive been! LOL, i had to take care of the fuel leak...its kind of an issue lol
While I had it apart I figured Re-jet it.
Also Inflated the tires... kinda shocked by the difference between 2 and 4psi. alot more manageable now

Yeah I added a Gallery and put a few more in it yesterday.

how cold of weather are you riding it in? Adjustable rad covers are good for the winter. You don't want to be beating on your motor and have your water temp really cold. An inline thermometer is also a good idea.

Get with Hagen as Mik6 mentioned. Hagen has some parts stored here at my place. Note: I do NOT make the deals, collect $$, or such on his stuff. I ONLY ship parts for him when he messages me with the info needed. I will message him with a link to this thread.
Howdy
