    79' GS1000 Front Fender Swap

    Hi all!!

    Before I get harassed for not using the search function, I searched, and searched old posts in an attempt to find a solution, with irrelevant results, so with that said, here we go....

    The original chrome front fender on my 79' GS1000 looks to have been attacked by a chain wielding thug at some point, or the po's kids got a tad reckless with their dad's hammer...needless to say its torn, and dented beyond repair.

    My question is...has anyone fitted a fender successfully, either from a different year, or a totally different brand of bike to a 78-9' GS1000? I have purchased a lot of parts from Airtech Streamlining in the past, but I didn't know if I want to drop $90 for a universal fender that either doesn't fit right, or looks awful once mounted.
    Thanks everyone for any input or suggestions...

    The 80-83 1100E, 80-82 GS750E front fenders are 19", bolt right and are lighter too. Styling of course is a personal choice.
