At the front-most end of the plastic fender (£15 off ebay) I fitted some aluminium cable straps originally destined for my Lambretta and used them to mount it to the swingarm.

Rear fender and struts
Made some struts for the Honda today. Pretty pleased with the way they turned out. I used 8mm OD / 6mm ID stainless pipe and a Draper Mini Tube Pipe Bender which is supposedly only to be used with thin-wall copper plumbing pipe but it handled the 1mm wall stainless admirably. At each end of the pipes I created a flat piece in a vice and then drilled a hole through.
