    Hi,

    As title says has anyone done this ?

    The '14 TC has a different fender mount so I'm not sure if it's as simple as using mx plate onto my '14 TE fender.

    I think I'll have to buy a new fender as when light bracket is removed there is a hole in existing fender. Unfortunately '14 TC fender won't fit my triple clamps.

    Thanks for any help.

    The quick and dirty solution, that keeps your existing front fender, is the 2012 Husaberg TE250/300 fender brace and the '14 number plate. You may have to trim the plate a little.

    Thanks - there must have been 2 fender brackets in 2012 then on the TE ? I'm in UK and TE's in '12 seem to have come with the same version on my '14 TE ie both had lights. I've googled some images and there appears to be some U.S. TE's with a a smaller fender bracket and front plate on them.

    You can get a adapter to convert the new style fender to the older style triple. You'd need a new fender and then the matching number plate. If you ever want to run a headlight, you'd need a whole new style assembly too, or reinstall the OEM fender.[IMG]

    US spec TE's didn't have lights in '12. In the UK, it would be easier to source the same brace using KTM source. I found the part in UK, here's the link. Way cheaper than the adapter.

    before the tecate sprint enduro I just changed to 15/16 style from my 2014 (husaberg front style) te300 using the flatland racing bracket kit, I bought it from Slavens Racing, knowing his crew was doing the job and had experience with it (with help from PNW Jake). it works fine. I got the TC number plate and I also purchased the new 15/16 style headlite assy to go with the new style fender. the only thing I do notice, but not important is that my tire hits the fender more on the rear inside due (only on hard hits) to the fender being slightly pushed forward with the bracket kit. also removed the rear light under fender assy so its a TC/E 300 in body work now.

    Yep I'll remove rear lights and probably the e start system. Bike rarely stalls so I'm happy to lose the weight.

    here she is with no enduro stuff, a 2014 TE300 with the flatland kit makes it a 2015/16 TC250

    Your bike looks great Rob! I just prefer the enduro look, even when I race Hare Scrambles. In the muddy east, the taillight and license plate help keep the mud off you!

    PS threebond grip glue is most exceptional stuff 2 times in the rain with no grip safety wire and they are firm.

    ive ordered up the small fender bracket and number plate from FX '12 - very cost effective option as still use existing fender and no trimming on plate required. Also easy to reinstall light.

    Will post up a pic when installed .
