V50 rear fender option?
« on: December 01, 2017, 12:57:30 AM »
A Guzzi fan from way back.  Love the small blocks.  Sold my Breva V1100 and got his very nice V50III.  Everything is cool, but the rear fender with the integral tail light.  Is there another Guzzi rear fender that is more conventional I install?

You could use an earlier V50 (metal) fender with separate taillight. I just installed one on the V65 I'm working on.

This one was NOS for a V50 II, so yes, any before the III. I can post some photos if you'd like.

The mounting brackets need to be modified - bent inward approx. 10 mm.







Once that's done the fender mounts up.




New holes needed to be drilled at the front.
