03/23/10 9:17 PM
I'm thinking about changing my front fender to the ZX10 fender.
My question is has anyone out there done one and what year ZX10 fender should I go with and what are the pro's and con's to changing the front fender? Please tell me. 
Photo's always help.

I used dubious's brackets...great fit.
Bought a new '07 ZX10 Candy Plasma Blue fender and side wings from cheapcycleparts.com or LowPriceBikeParts.com to match the bike. Both places have great prices on OEM parts and good service.
I think it looks better than stock, has a slimming effect.
Didn't notice any performance effects, some say you lose some top speed. Others say its worth it because the bike runs cooler. I think it lets more air into the radiator, catching more air maybe slows it down?
It did not affect stability, up to 170mph anyway (on a closed course...of course) 
I also installed a "fenda extenda" to help save my radiator from my dirt roads.

Still no pics. Bike still up on front and rear stands, naked. Got about a month more of weekend work to do before I can get it off the stands. There will be pictures then. Oh, and have to get the kanji decals as a final touch.
By the way, if you use the forum search function, there have been several photos in threads previously of the exact same configuration using Dubious' mounting kit.
