robertv said:Ok, will need to add this fender extender soon. Just rode in the rain and need some extra protection. Thanks to all for pics and feedback.
Bikersuzzz said:Hi there Blue One,
What are your prices ? I definitely would like to get the front one and maybe the back one too later, unless you sell them as a package deal. What about shipping ? I'm in New Brunswick, Canada. It would probably be cheaper to put them on the bus rather than through Canada Post... or maybe not, I'm sure you know much more about shipping than I do.
Thanks
Suz

HH said:Blue One, I sent you a PM but haven't heard from you. Can you PM regarding an extender. Thanks
Blue One said:A recent problem a fellow encountered with installation leads me to this post.
These extenders fit very well and at this point there are many hundreds of them in service all over the globe.
The type of glue is important, as using ABS specific glue is the only way to ensure a successful and reliable install. The stock fender is made of ABS plastic as is my fender extender.
The technique of installing is as important. An adequate amount of ABS cement must be applied to both surfaces.
Before installing it is a good idea to cover the extender and the painted surface of the fender up to where the two pieces meet with blue painters tape to protect them from excess glue.
Then you can apply glue and clamp away.
Any excess glue that may squeeze out can be removed with the tape. That way the fender extender and fender are protected from the glue and clamping process.
Anyone who is not sure on their abilities regarding installation can ship their fender(s) to me for installation. All this will cost you above the cost of the extender(s) is shipping.
I install these for local riders and have had a few shipped to me as well.
Just so you know, that is an option.

old n slow said:Hey Blue One...sent you a PM and some paypal info for the extenders.
Thanks!!!!!
Blue One said:Time for another bump![]()
Derek said:Yes just PM him to ask questions or to order. Page 1 has pictures if the front and back wheel versions.
Blue One said:I have designed my own fender extender for the C14. I vaccum mold them myself and they are longer and provide more coverage than any other currently available fender extender for the Concours.
They are made of black textured ABS plastic. The stock fender is ABS plastic as well. Installation involves removing the fender and gluing the extender on with ABS glue available in any plumbing supply or building supply such as Home Depot or Lowes.
The extender blends in well with the Concours styling and looks OEM.
It will protect your radiator from damage, and also protect the lower cowling and oil filter and pipes area.
The price is $45 US which includes mailing to your address. If you want to order just send me a message and I can give you an address to send paypal payment to.
Take a look at the pictures.
An edit so that you will all understand this is not brand new, there are hundreds of my extenders out in service on Concours -GTR 14's all over the world. I noticed my other thread is still on here from before as well. The pictures will appear larger on that thread ! Or you can just click on these and they get bigger

Not sure if the fender extender would have prevented it (as I think it was a rock from another bike).
But, it sure wouldn't of hurt to have one.
I do. GREAT!!
Ride safe, Ted
