    Second picture is my Terra with a Strada fender. Made that piece from a 3/16 × 3/4 inch of aluminum flatbar with a 180 degree twist and two 1/4 inch holes.

    This wasn't my idea initially. I got it from another forum member (sorry guy I can't remember who!). I bought a used KLR windscreen on eBay for $15. I cut and trimmed until it fit.

    Great. I ordered a piece of 3/4 x 1/4 inch aluminum flatbar hoping it will work. A bit concerned about threading the piece on the top side but ordered 24" in case I have to take a couple tries at it...! Thanks for the info.

    Just some notes from the peanut gallery on the front fenders:

    1) the white Stratus front fender looks cheesy for a Supermoto deluxe bike imo (maybe it's the color...?), BUT

    2) the raised high fender may have a problem blocking the radiator, like the BMW F650 GS which ALWAYS had a constant problem overheating. BMW actually figured that one out, to my surprise.

    Just some observations: damned if you do and damned if you don't. They all look fantastic though. Good work guys!

    Looking back through this thread, this was one of my favorites on CafeHusky! Too bad she was stolen in NYC.

    Nice wheels, is that a 17 up front? What rims and tires? Do you have ABS?

    Yeah it's a 17 up front. I sent the hubs from a Terra to Woody's Wheel Works and had them laced up to excel rims. I'm running Pirelli Rosso II, 120/70-17 front and 150/60-17 rear. The bike does have ABS and it works fine with the 17 front. If I were to do it again I'd go with a 4.5 inch wide rim instead of 4.25 rear and go with a 160 tire. I purchased the rear hub new and got a complete Terra front wheel from Halls. I had the hubs powder coated red, installed new bearings and shipped them off to Woodys. This all started because I was not happy with tire choices that were available for the Strada's original wheels. I ride 99% street and I was pushing the original tires to their limits. Next up is the suspension.

    Thanks, was parked next to my brother-in-law's street triple with red wheels and thought that would look good on the Strada. I started having my doubts while waiting on them to show up but once they arrived and I had mounted them all was good.

    Love the front fender. Can you provide some details about this? I really want to change mine also.

    It's the fender and the fork guards from the Terra.

    https://aomc.mx/OEM-PARTS-FINDER.html is where I bought all the parts to convert to the Terra front fender. Less than $100, but that was quite awhile ago. The tires are shinko 805 rear, tkc 80 front.
