Has anyone ever extended their fenders?  I am getting sick of slinging mud in my face.

there's not much you can do....  :( You'd have to fabricate something at least for the front. I have thought about before, but Krandall is right, they are pretty worthless to begin with :lol: I don't know, find some lightweight flexible plastic. Run it from the fender to the front of the nerfs...?

Besides all that, buy a utility. I was always clean as a whistle after riding the prairie :lol:

Could always do it warrior style and make some flaps out of a rigid material and bolt it through the plastic ends...probably would have to trim the corners on the existing plastics so it'd be easier to mount them. but otherwise...it's an open sport quad, you're gonna get dirty somehow. Don't ride in mud or wear a waterproof suit. Or just man up and deal with it :lol:

Bombardier DS 650 came factory with front fenders.  Personally I like the idea of front fenders. Would really help during cold weather riding in mud, slush & snow.  It does get old having your gear get all mucked up from the knee down everytime you find a puddle.

Find some ice racers, they were made mandatory for a lot of AMA events in the last couple years.  They will be able to get you on the right track.

Yeah, not that I mind getting muddy, I just want to be able to ride with goggles on.  If it gets too muddy I just have to go without.  I suppose I'm not willing to totally ruin the look of my quad just to keep the mud out of my eyes.  I'm not going to ride with my vision impaired though.
