LH , you raise a good point. Bike has 37k on it . Have never had the forks examined to see if they are true, Is there a standard way to check if they are true/ aligned?

One last question , anyone know what the front fender is made of, so I can pick the correct epoxy or adhesive? There seems to be number of epoxys targeting different types of plastic.

Thanks for the response and the link. It looks like that crazy glue + baking soda would be good for tacking the parts back together but i don't think it is a structural repair solution. I attached photo of my fender.

I have a couple of quick questions. The front fender for my 1999 VFR is cracking right through around the bolt holds. On one bolt, it has completly cracked though in a semicircle around the bold and I think it's starting to become dangerous and the whole fender could fly off.

Has anyone repaired a front VFR fender with fiberglass? I was thinking of using fiberglass to build up and support the fender on the inside. I have a niggling in the back of my mind that fiberglasss is not the right repair material. Something about it being fragile and potentially shattering, dumping shards of sharp fiberglass near my front wheel. Anyone got some advice or used fiberglass for this type of repair?

Is the front fender necessary? Can i ride around without it for a couple of weeks while i repair the fender?

Are there any replacement options aside of the OEM for front fenders?

Thanks,

I need to get this done, how long should my motorcycle repair shop estimate to do this work.. ? Actually mine is a 1999. Not sure if the process is very different

thanks,
