Tiger I front mudguards

[Ragnar Arntsen]

Hi all
Yet again a new qestion? How to find a good picture of the hinges on the front mudguards, I think the hinges provided with the kit are wrong. The center should be welded to the tank and the side pices of the hinges welded to the mudguards, am I wrong or right ?
Thanks to anybody pointing me in the right direction.
Regards Ragnar

Hi Ragnar

You are correct. The kit supplied guards, as well as Mike's have the hinges different then the real ones. On the real one, the pin is on the mud flap and the "loop" is on the Tiger's hull. I think Mike Kasputis did this conversion on his Tiger 1. I can't find his thread though.

Best regards
Tim

The fenders are wrong and I did a fix on mine. Go here viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1219 and you can see what I did.
