Me being the Thrifty (read "Cheap SOB") that I am, wanted a cheap way to protect my rear shock from spray/dirt slung off the rear tire....
So here is what I did...
I Took a Black 1 Gallon Anti-Freeze Jug (Could be a gallon Oil or grease jug)
And cut out the flat section around the main section of the jug (cut off the top, and bottom, used the middle)
The cut it down one side, so I could flatten it out, then cut out a piece to act as a "Mud Flap" for my shock (much like most dirt bikes come with)
Shown below....
Then drilled a hole on each side of the upper part, lined it up to the area I was attaching it and drilled 2 matching holes in the plastic inner fender, near the existing slits on either side of it.
Then attached it with 2 zip ties thru the new holes, and back out thru the pre-existing slits, and Wa-la a mud flab, for basically free
Hope this helps some other Cheap SOB's out there....
