Fender mounting
« on: October 05, 2015, 06:39:53 PM »
For a K2 and up fender and caliper bracket how do they mount to the fork? Is the fender bracket between the caliper bracket and fork? Or is the fender bracket on the inside toward the tire with the caliper bracket between it and the fork? Couldn't find a clear picture and it's not shown in the fishy...

On the K0 I used late bottoms (T-caliper bracket) for dual disc setup and the fender bracket was directly mounted on top of the break bracket.


From what I remember, there is only one way it goes together.

I am not able to verify any more, K0 is completely in pieces now.

The side with the brake the caliper mounts to the fork lower and the fender mounts on top of the caliper.

cadunkle,

Here are 2 pictures of my K6 front fender mounting.
If they don't show what you need let me know and I'll try to do better.  :)

Thanks, that's how I suspected it should go.
