Hey guys, what all is involved with doing a high fender conversion? Seems like a mount and a second brake line for the right side. Pics welcomed!

First, welcome. Second, please fill in the location part of your profile. Third, use the search button.  You'll need it sooner or later so it might as well be now.  It's been done, with pics.

I need a button on my keyboard that fills in all this to save me typing it all the time....   :icon_rolleyes:

For XP I'd recommend Texter. Unfortunatly this doesn't work for Win7, but PhraseExpress is a good alternative.

On my tablet I have a couple of programmable buttons (remember them? Commodore 64 ???) one currently fills in my email address, the other is blank, but when I wrote that I was on my laptop.  I could re-prog one of them  :thumbsup

I want to remove the hugger and go with a high fender, but stretch doesn't do it anymore. :(

and now I want to find my old c64 too..

Sorry for the hijack, but learning to program and write games on my C64 was a life-changer for me.  It gave me a head start over my peers when CNC arrived in our workshop and my fair-to-middling career suddenly took off in an unexpected direction.

Back on topic,  it looks like you'll have to take some ideas from the Steamer guys and improvise.  RF9 did a nice one if I remember rightly and he does excellent write-ups.

So i got a mysterious mx fender from the local bike shop for 5 bucks and quickly made some brackets work. The fender sits around 1.5" above where the other fender sat with NO permanent modifications.

That's a version I haven't seen before, could well start a new trend, got a sort of Pteradactyl look going on there  :icon_lol:
I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint
