My 87 Big Red Restoration Pictures !!!!

[ClayW]

These are some pics I took today. I am just about finished with it. I am very pleased with it so far. The only thing I am waiting on is a complete set of stickers for the tanks side covers etc... The entire. set. I hooked up with a guy online that makes stickers for ATC's. He had been wanting to do a 87 Big Red set but had nothing to work off of. So I took digital pictures of all my original stickers and and traced them. I mailed them off to him today. Hopefully in a few weeks I will have the entire set for FREE!!!!! Hell yeah. Just a perk for helping the guy. What a deal huh, especially since Honda quit making them. Tell me what you think of my pics. :Bounce

Hey john thanks. I think Maier recently went to that style rear fenders. I was hoping they were the type I was going to get. Hey did you guys know that Maier makes the rear trunk lid for the Big Red also. $38 shipped. I didnt know they made them. No one carries them. But you can order them straight from Maier. I may get one before long. I repainted mine with some spray paint that looked good. Its a good match but the plastic is very weathered.

where did you get the maier fenders with the built-in mud flaps...if you don't mind my asking?

[ClayW]

Hey no problem. I get all my parts including the fenders from www.hyperparts.com
They run about $130 plus $8 for shipping. They have the best prices around hands down.

Hey clay.

did the maier fenders come with the pieces that go betwwen the fenders and the tank just below the seat?

I need to get new fenders but these pieces are but scratched up and one got partly melted on my exhaust system.
