Wanted: RGS Rear Fender
« on: 19.06. 2008 18:29 »
I'm looking for a RGS type rear fender to put on my '62 A10.  I realize these things don't come up for sale very often but I thought I'd try...

I bought a new one for my RGS several years ago from Chris Williams, I think, in the UK. I am sure there are other suppliers. You realise that you will need to get shorter rear stays, two brackets and a seat bracket for this conversion, don't you?

I almost forgot, you also need a bracket which bolts to the frame near the swing-arm pivot, not to mention a new number plate.

Thanks for the info, Trev.  I'm gathering you're in Australia and you were able to get these parts shipped to you there from U.K.?  Yeah, I don't know what all is involved as far as fitment goes but I figured I'd start with the fender and order necessary parts from there.  There's a picture of my bike in the 'bikes and pictures' section near the top.  I don't currently have any stays so I'm almost starting from scratch anyway.

Well, I've tried every domestic (U.S.) source I could find for this fender and bracketry and have had no luck.  Who is Chris Williams?  I googled the name along with 'motorcycle parts' but found nothing.
Thanks.

Thanks Manosound.  I tried the link but couldn't get on the site and emailed him but my email was returned undeliverable-  I guess he's not in business anymore.  I was able to use that link to find more places in the U.S. however, so I'll keep looking.

There is one described as a RGS or S/R fender on ebay now at $200 US 3 days left #180308112443 seems a little steep for a used fender but maybe worth a look Peter
