WTB original front mudguard extender. This was made as an optional purchase and has the same kick out at the bottom like the rear mudguard.

Good luck with that -- they're good as gold since they long stopped making them. I have one on one of my K75s -- looks great and if they still made them I'd have them on all three!
If one appears anywhere you're going to have to beat me to the jump :yes

http://www.motobrick.com/index.php/topic,7914.msg57660.html#msg57660. Easy as pie to make one, look up Fenda Extenda for 90c.
Regards Martin.

Yeah, but the OEM is the OEM one with the lip. You can make one or buy an aftermarket Fenda Extenda, but if you want the OEM one with the lip, then that's what you want and there's no substitute.
Just sayin'...

Would you please post a profile photo of this rare gem, Motorhobo?

Crappy photo but you get the idea.

Thanks for the photo!

If you get desperate you can make one with the lip. At Laitchs request I did one with a kickback. With a bit of trial and error a few buckets, and a heat gun and a round bar for a former I think a passable copy could be made, especially since you have one to copy. Failing that we have a business locally that molds and shapes Perspex to a high standard and he could probably do it. So try to find one that does it, they must be around.
Regards Martin.

I could probably make a fiberglass mold of it -- I'll put it on my to do list for this year...for what that's worth.

Thanks everyone for your help. As Motohobo said, OEM is OEM and it also matches the rear, so I will have to keep looking for one. I first spied one on the Beemer Boneyard site on a blue K100, and no, they don't have one, but if/when they do, it's mine 'cos my name is on top of the list bmp
I see Wanderingeye has his red 1100 for sale, and it has an OEM fender extender...
-
I have one I don't want/need, will have to ship from u.s. Let me know and I can send photos to make sure it's the right part. Took off of a K100RS.

Thanks Rossff, the fender extender arrived (a while back) in a parcel from MAX BMW with other bits I ordered. The world really is a small place when you can look and find parts anywhere on the planet. The fit is perfect and I could not be happier! The last piece on the wish list is a belly pan fairing which I bid for on Trademe (a Kiwi version of eBay) and bought for 22.00 including mounting bracket and all attaching hardware! Sure it needs some work as it's very stone chipped but it will come up sweet. Absolute steal at twice the price.

Excellent! Glad you were able to work out a solution with Max BMW to save the shipping cost. I've bookmarked them for future business as they are obviously customer-oriented. Post a picture of the finished project when you get the belly pan re-furbished.
