Just ordered an new Maier KX style rear fender for my KDX220. Has anyone ever installed one? Any hints? Just wondering how much custom fitting is needed... :yikes:

Thanks!

Odie,

There's no custom fitting required. Just take off the stock fender and bolt up the new one. 15min job. :cool:

What part do you request? Late model kx250 or 125?
My parts guy looked at me like I was nuts.

Thanks for the quick replies! That is good news! I ordered from Dennis Kirk and they only had one part number for the MX rear fender for a 2001 KDX220 from Maier. Can't wait for it to get here. My current one got creased when the former owner wheelied just a little to far :eek:

You all have a great day!

You don't order a KX fender. You order a Maier MX fender for the KDX.

My guess would be a '95-'96 KX125. That's the most similar KX frame compared to a KDX.

Maier mx style rear fender 95 to 04

part #. 144863

$51.00

They come in green or black and are a direct bolt on fender, no fitting required.

Not sure why you would want to try and fit a KX fender on when Maier makes one that is the best fitting one out there.

the reason for this isbecause a KX fender doesn tbolt right up. its just like buying something from a convienence(sp?) store instead of a supermarket... CONVIENECE (sp?) You buy it for almost double the money because it is convienient (sp?) And also because maier is the ONLY company that makes this fender.

I think those maier fenders look pretty cheesy if you ask me.

i had a kx guard on my kdx untill i snapped it in half. mine looked pretty crappy but if u made a good job of putting it on it could look cool. u have to cut the bottom half of the stock fender off and join it to the top half of the kx fender. then make a little spacer out of the stock mud guard to fit between the side cover and mud guard.heres some pics of my kdx with the kx guard on it. http://groups.msn.com/KDXRidersCommunity/kdxman15.msnw. im just gonna buy a maier guard this time. im thinking of going black. cya

Beautiful

The Maier rear fender bolted right on and fits great! Was money well spent!
