    Pretty sure I can picture what you're describing, just not how it would work, I am intrigued though. Just make sure to take/post some pics if/when you start fabricating. I'd be interested as it would be nice to use the factory brace without having to drill the new fender. I'll try to get out to the garage tomorrow and take another look at my fenders and possibly offer some input that is actually useful, lol.

    see where the fuel line is sitting on top of the brace? replace the fuel line with a 1x4 inch piece of strap steel, bolt it to the brace, install small rubber bumpers on the ends. it would keep from wanting to turn.

    on another note. replacement decals for the sides of the rear fender (tire info on the right, chain info on the left ) doesn't fit the contours of the maier plastics. jim

    Okay, that setup should work for you. The layout must be different on the 350x than the 200x and 250r because I don't have that bracket on either of mine.
