GTR 1400 Front and Rear fender extenders

[Bongo]

Like the look of these fender extenders, but how awkward does it make it to get back wheel in and out when changing tires?

It makes it a little more awkward, but most people will used a bike lift that has the removable plate under the rear wheel so it isn't an issue.

Also having the bike on the centerstand taking off the front and rear wheels the bike will tip forward enough that again it isn't a problem. Done it several times.

The function of the rear extender makes the small inconvenience worthwhile.

Fitted and looks great, apart from drilling a 3mm hole in my finger that is.

Thanks very much.

It should read "only competant people to use power tools".

I used to be competant, now I am old.

Ive had my rear tyre changed a few times and the tyre fitter has never had a problem getting the wheel out..

Mine was posted a month ago.... surface mail.... looking at guidance some say it could take 8-12 weeks to arrive   

At that rate I may get them on before Normandy in June

Anyone else had them by surface mail yet?

I sure hope it isn't 8-12 weeks, I could probably got them there faster by rowboat     Rediculous really, all because a package weighed more than 500 grams.  The extra cost may be worth it for future orders. Gotta love Canada Post   

It will be worth the wait. 

Here in Edmonton we are approaching the first day of spring.
This morning I had to shovel a path through 20 cm of new snow so our little miniature weiner dogs could get out to do their morning duties   

Edit...A quick call to the post office for their official take on delivery - 4-6 weeks.
