David,

I just spoke with the folks at Maier and was told that they are no longer producing these.  The folks at Maier still have the molds/tooling to produce these fenders but Barry Higgins (former owner KTM World/H&H KTM) owns the molds so Maier cannot produce these without his permission.  So it does not look like we will be seeing these fenders again unless someone is sitting on a hoard or them or if someone buys the rights to the molds/tooling from Barry and contracts Maier to begin producing these again.

Thanks,

Kevin

Larry,

This morning they (H&H) told me they did not own the rights to molds/tooling so they could not replenish stock and that Barry still owns the molds.  I got essentially the same message from Maier.

Thanks,

Kevin

Thank you for the input.Is there optional sources of plastics other than DC? foreign Country? My experience with DC plastics for a Maico was not pleasant.

Are these available on a website? They used to be a few years ago.
I am after a few sets of these too...

KTM World in Georgia has them in stock. I received one several weeks ago.
