I saw Ryan's post on the old style fender on a 696 and my wife didn't like her carbon one on her S2R. I had a spare new one and slapped it on. What do you think?

It seems so jagged compared to the curvilinear lines of the rest of the bike. I always liked the old style monsters because of the rounded contours. Not sure but maybe it would work better without the bikini fairing. Either way, it's still a sweet scoot  [thumbsup]

I think it looks pretty good.  Nice bike.

Well the wife likes it so it stays.  [thumbsup] Until I find another use for it. I have a habit of robbing bits off her bike for mine.  ;D

That whole front end is sick. Did the forks come anodized red or is that something you had done?  [thumbsup]

Came that way.

What kind?  Marzocchi ?
Yup.

Kopf has posted details on it elsewhere on the forum.

I'm sure he'd love to tell you the details. Shoot him a pm.
