Ok I have a 96 s1 I do not like the front fender too bulky looking not sure. Does any one have any ideas for other fenders does not have to be buell , what about Ducati or something. I have fabrication abilities can modify or build mounts what ever!

Looks good but not what I am looking for. I am going for small thin skinny minimal slimline something that does not stand out

What about modifying an XB type fender to fit the WP mounts on your bike?

The XB front fenders are pretty minimal.

Here's a pic of a cool modded XB fender on AR HArley & Son's website, you could add a tab for the back fender mounting point using a similar theme:






Image came from a google image search using "buell xb front fender"

Or just fab up something with fiberglass using the XB part as a basic mold, then add a slimmer rear support tab to that

I might be interested in your fender if you'd like to get rid of it. I might have an extra X1 fender laying around.

Devdawg, if S1owner isn't interested in your x1 fender I'd like to know what color it is.
