I'm wondering if anybody has some close up pics of how the hinge on the Big Red rear fender is set up?
I tried looking online, but didn't come up with much.
I'd like to hinge the fenders on my 200X to accomodate the rear kicker, instead of trimming/removing rear fenders.
I just wanted to see what kind of hinge it is, and how they mounted it to the frame and fender.
Thanks

The fenders bolt to the rack and the whole assembly pivots on the rear rack mount. There was a guy with a CR 500 conversion that hinged the rear fenders for the rear kick. Maybe someone on here has those pictures or a link to them.

Yeah, there's really no hinge to it. Honda just used 2 shoulder bolts which thread into the rear frame horn. The threads bottom out, and the rear plastic assy pivots on the shoulder of the bolt. Very simple (and very handy).
