Rear Fender

:mrgreen:
Hi i am half way through my restoration of my Suzuki gt250m this is a 1975 model.
I am doing it as a full nut and bolt restoration, however i am now stuck in respect of trying to locate a rear fender, the model here in England is the same as your Hustler gt250 or t250 ,so would be grateful if any members could locate me a rear fender that i can restore and that would take a re-chrome for the correct money.

Regards.

Hen's teeth! You might consider getting a universal one if you aren't too pedantic about originality. They are a lot cheaper than a genuine one and probably easier to find.
If not would a gt380 one fit?

there were some rd350 yam [aircooled] rear muddys on a few weeks ago. made in india and there are a few people i know that have modified these for the gt250. if you aren't bothered about complete originality, try for a euro spec muddy. the top fastening hole is slightly different, and the rear light holes ditto, but there's a lot more decent gt250 rear muddys in europe than our wonderful wet country :D i've got 2 euro spec rears on my gt250's, both from germany and pretty much immaculate.
cheers, dd.
ps, usa spec is same as uk :D
