I need some help with a silly little part.... I'm looking for the little L-shaped bracket that holds the rear "hugger" fender. Item #3 in this picture: www.partsforscooters.com/Vehicle-Type/125cc-150cc-GY6-4-Stroke-Rear-Fenders#Does anyone know where I could find one (I'm looking and not having much success). I found a nice set of chrome brackets, but I'm not paying $30 for them. :-P Also found it on another site for $3.46, much better, but they have a minimum order of $20... Does someone have an extra one, or one going unused? Or, Could someone who has the bracket, make a sketch of it and give me accurate dimensions to make one myself? (I'm pretty handy with a dremel) Thanks!

Could someone please get me these two dimensions? The rest I can do without, but these are somewhat more important. Thanks!

Didn't call them, but I got a quick e-mail back from them. Basically, they said if they don't have it listed on the website, they don't have it. Also, the one place I thought had it, told me that they actually don't. I bought a piece of aluminum flatbar that I'm going to make it out of and will in all likely hood just eyeball it.

My bike had this fender from the start, but I must have misplaced this bracket during my engine teardown. I also moved in the middle of that downtime, so who knows where it went.... I thought I was pretty good about keeping all the little parts in ziplock bags, but I guess I misplaced this one.

Well, I eyeballed it and it seems to work out great. I had to fiddle with it a little bit a few times, but in the end the fender lines up well. I'll post some pics if anyone is interested, but its just a little plate of aluminum with a couple holes in it.

Where did you find the bracket but the site requiring a minimum order? I was thinking about swapping to the CF hugger fender that I already bought from MonsterGY6. When I ordered I assumed(never assume) that it would bolt on my Hornet. My fender doesn't have the brackets for either side so it of course didn't work. I don't have the tools to fab brackets up so, I figure I will just drop the jack to get them. Thanks!

That was Alpha-Sports.com, but when I asked about it, they actually told me they didn't have the bracket.
