This picture has been in the gallery for a week or two but I haven't seen it pop up in any discussions. Anyone know where the transparent fender came from?? I'd love one but have never seen one around before.

He said he got at the home coming this year, it's also on ebay ,current bid is 350.00 for the set!
 
I misspoke ,Joel9 saw it on ebay and Redrider responded by saying he picked one up at the homecoming . Sorry!
 
I saw them on ebay! I browsed through fenders there after I posted this and saw the set. Too bad I don't need a red flyscreen or airbox. That's a sexy fender though!
 
That fender i really sweet , the original post stated that they didn't go into production due to road spray and road junk would require removal of the fender to clean. It WOULD be a pain in the tookus to clean , but sure looks cool!
 
Paint the underside with a dark silver, say by to cleaning road grime from underneath.

hey nikko, the black X serves a purpose. alot of people like them, like me. on another forum there is a guy with a translicid orange fender, look sweet!
 
Too bad they don't make a Firebolt fairing and tail section like that, I think it would be kind of cool to see the sub-frame and wires, etc. dimly lit by some carefully placed LEDs.
 
Sorry if I offended u or anyone Joel. To me it's just a distraction. ****** part is you can't just take it off. I'd love to get a kick ash cover for my hero blue Scg sometimes but can't find it without the X and I personally hate it.
 
I like my airbox without the X. It's easier to see through it without it, but at the same time, if I did have an X I'd get a tank bag, but I don't since I'm worried about scuffing it all up. Makes me look forward to the day when I have another bike with a metal tank so I can just slap a magnetic one on there.

I wish they made more transparent firebolt pieces as well, but I assume the extra weight might make it likely that they would crack in too many places.

I also wish an aftermarket company would start pumping out some other colors like green or a lighter red, even pink. I'd love to get some clear ones with no color tint as well.
 
I think it would be badass to have front fenders as well as rear huggers/fenders too, it would just tie all of the colors in better IMO.
 
$20!!

You're a jerk for telling us that. I was dissapointed I wasn't at homecoming to get one, but I knew that even if I was there I'd be too cheap to pay for one anyway so I wasn't too upset about it. Thanks a lot...
 
If anyone has a front fender or rear hugger in translucent orange I would be very interested....even if you know someone i would love their contact info in a pm.
 
They did not price anything! I was told 20bucks per part,belts, tires,airbox covers ect. I was one of the first to get there and know one knew the stuff was for sale. I only saw 3 transparent fenders 2 amber 1 red. I road the scg up there with only my grandsons backpack on and then bought 1 fender 1 airbox cover 1 flyscreen Erik loaned me a roll of duct tape so everthing got taped to the outside of the backpack so i road back the next day looking kinda strange! Oh that night there was one hell of a party with Eriks band playin and a lot of drinkin goin on!
