    What kind of front fender is this?

    I received this in a lot of Yamaha front fenders, but I am pretty damn sure it is not a Yamaha. The flash from the camera makes it look white, but it is more of a cream color. A portion of the rear has been cut off so this is no the original size. It does not feel like the plastic Yamaha or Honda uses. It is pliable and soft. Well, any ideas?

    Looks similar to the fender on that frame that I have in design at the front of it(the one with the blue fender I told you about). Possibly one of the BigWheel Yamaha Motorcycles though...

    I thought it was off a big wheel at first. But the Big Wheels I have seen have Tri-z fenders on them. And this one is more of a cream color rather than white.

    It does look like that KTM fender, but I can not say for sure.

    I am pretty sure it is not a Honda. Besides, I have never seen a cream colored 200X fender.

    Can you post a photograph of your fender for comparison. I have my dooubts about it being a Honda, but I could be wrong.

    I was going to say 81-82R .... Maier use to make about any color you wanted for fenders.... the bolt pattern for the 81-82R matches pretty close to the Yamaha 225DX/200E as well....

    I was just about to correct what I had said earlier. I used some bleach and a fine scrub cloth and discovered it is stained from clay. Nimda78 beat me to the puch. However, the Yamaha Big Wheel used a Tri-Z fender. I have already compared the two.
