    Greetings!

    I'm currently in the middle of converting my 2008 Te450 into a supermoto.
    I have fitted a complete front end with triple clamps and forks from a SMR511 and I'm waiting for a set of complete Arrow dual exhausts to show up within the next couple of weeks.
    My vision for the bike is to completely black it out, with red details and a nice clean graphics kit down the road. I have gotten my hands on a set of black rear side plastics from a SM450RR to accommodate for the dual exhausts, but have some questions regarding the rear fender.
    The fender currently on the bike is a black UFO Te/Tc rear fender, but with the 17" rear wheel the fender just looks way too long and out of place from a side-view. I also have a white SMR rear fender, which is a bit shorter and it flows better with the bike in my opinion, but it crashes with my plans to black the bike out, so I wonder what my options are. Is there or have there ever been an option for a black SMR rear fender? (Tail-light housing / Plate holder part of the fender is not necessary.) Any input is very welcome!

    Cut down the black one? You have a template with the white one....

    I would prefer not to resort to the dremel if possible, hahah, but I guess we'll have to wait and see what it comes down to in the end.
