This topic has created some more interest in other threads and also hi-jacked them so thought it time to post about mine..
I used a two mounting position, with 12mm bar and 5mm angle iron..
the angle iron is mounted to the threaded part of the ball joints, as can be seen in the pics..
It does not leave a lot of thread to get the split pins back in but half of one has to be better than none at all. alternatively, a nylock self locking nut will do the same job.
My guards came off a taiwanese 100cc quad, but another can be the ds 650, or as in the other pics i have, a trailor mud guard cut down to fit a kwack 450 and ktm 520, as in my pics.
Each quad is mounted differently too, the kwack having a single clamp on the steering arm, the ktm with a single bracket on the ball joint.
