Making my fender and brace

The first photo is the 1978 Honda CB750 front fender inside.
The second photo are tack welds on the inside of the brace to
make the two pieces stiffer.

Then I cut the brace and fender out as a unit.
Then sanded and fitted the brace to the front forks.
I made sure the fender will fit tightly over the brace.








I will report back with finished photo after painting and installation.

I bought the fender on Ebay.
It is a Universal Cafe front fender. from VINTRACE $57.00 (ouch)
The fender is very light weight plastic but it is about 3/16 thick material.
You can get a few colors too.

Here are the finished photos after I painted the metal fender brace black.
