    Other smaller or lesser known companies, such as Tiger ATV, Franks, and Cagiva, produced racing three wheelers, but in much smaller numbers. Few of these machines are known to exist today and are highly sought by collectors.

    Bill I wondered the same thing, a few weeks ago he had Jackie Meadow's fender on ebay. Either this guy was involved with Team Green, or he is full of ----.

    Gonna be tough to say, I am with the kid, he has to have some prior association with team green/kawasaki for them to be legit or be an extremely lucky fan to have those. If the guy was into ATC's he could have saved those stickers from back in the day and used them now, although I think that is highly doubtful. Still would be cool to have...

    they say excellent shape, however there is a huge peice missing on the left side fender. and unless there is some kind of authentication certificate or something with them, you would never truely know if they ever where used by jimmy white. as for the stickers, i have the same ones, i got off ebay to complete my jimmy white replica. vintage atv stickers.

    after further review, both sides have been cut...weird. in my opinion, not worth it.

    Notice he said they were on a quad that Jimmy White raced back in the day, but he has them listed as t3 fenders. I dont think someone associated with team green or racing would make that mistake.

    Yeah, I have doubts of the authenticity of these. They would be cool if they were real but real crappy if they weren’t. I’m a big fan JW but I’m not willing to risk that much cash on a possible hoax.

    Those fenders look more like tire rub than cut, I see this all the time on tt bikes so I would be looking for JW's tt bike pics if you can find any to verify. Anyone ask the seller where or how he got them?

    Yup, I agree Jim. My 250R fenders have the same thing, more so on the left side from my ass hanging off the seat and pressing down on them but machines that were TT'ed would obviously have it on both sides. The only thing I can say is it looks like they were pretty large tires if thats what its from.

    I can see the Bassani sticker in not on the pic of JW. So we know it wasn't from that t3 in the pic. I wonder what they will end up going for.

    They could be from this one:

    I bought a tank from the guy and I guess his brother had something to do with team green. JW had MANY different trikes and the cutouts are from tirerub. If you look through the old mags(lake George ice racing) I think you can find these fenders with matching stickers. The first pic aboveis 2nd gen. t3,these are obviously 85's. I wonder how many trikes were "jimmy's" during that year,I'll bet half a dozen at least. I think they're legit and I'll bet there is a mag pic out there somewhere that has them in it.

    LOTS A ATC 90'S,I could only fit 7 in the pic

    They look almost exact to the original pic posted in this post, and then the one at the bottom of the post by Hadar. Based on the discoloration of the JT Racing, I'd say these are original stickers. Not to mention, the cuts/wear are almost exact.

    In any event, even if they aren't, the fenders are only at $200 right now. I'm paying well over that with shipping for a crappy Maier rear fender. I'd say it's worth it for a racing OEM fender. Looks pretty cool to me. If I had the extra cash, I'd definitely grab em.

    Jimmy White probably had several fenders, and I am sure his fans had even more... Unless this guy has some sort of proof I would say think they are most likely replicas...
