I m sure I could help, but as a suggestion I know a chap who rode a VFR and to do the same job he bought a plastic chopping board and cut it to a nice tapered shape to hang on down passed the number plate. His bike was red so he had used a red chopping board.

Which bike you got? If the mk1 or 2 600 then the fender extended/rear mud guard from a thunder cat will fit straight on.

The extender has got to be black as my bike is burnt orange and black

Other material to consider making it from is an old plastic oil container or an old 25ltr oil drum (if you want a really big one). Cut to shape and rivet, or nut and bolt using big enough penny washers on both sides.
Make it out of cardboard first, to get the shape right. I think you'll need to put a decent flange on it. Use a heat gun or blow torch to help you get the fold then chill it in a bucket of cold water. Here's one for the front I made earlier of my KE. ![]()
Some say that he eats habanero chilli peppers dipped in oil of capsaicin for extra bite and that his pyjamas are made from Nomex. All we know is, he's called Ad the Bad
Are you a Gynnie ? How else can you turn a bucket into a decent flange :eek
