Wanted: Falk replica rear enduro fender

[Mike OReilly]

I'm in the process of putting together a "Jack Penton replica" for the I.S.D.T. reunion. Al Buehner has a listing for the proper enduro fender with the hump for a tailight, as was run on the Penton/KTM's in Dalton in '73. He called me today, and unfortunately he is out of stock, and apparently so is Larry Perkins.
Any leads on this item would be appreciated.
By the way, I have the proper CEV tailight, so it is only the fender that I require. Also, Al says that there are more of these fenders on the way, they just won't be here for October. So if you have one waiting on a project, there will be more available.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Rik Smits has some that should work. They are the Falk for the Hercules.

I am the original owner of the mold for the fender that Larry and AL were selling fenders for, If there is enough interest from either Larry , Al , or the POg members I can have another run made.  I also referred Rick SMits (through Larry) to the manufacturer and his fender was supposed to be more for the Hercules, I could be wrong since I havn't seen his fenders yet.

I looked at Ricks fenders at Walnut this weekend and they look very similer to Penton rear fenders. Should work fine. If you cant find his contact info email me. [email protected]

I bought one of these fenders last weekend from Rik at the Portland race.
The plastic they are made from seems to be right on, strong, flexible, not brittle.
He explained to me ahead of time they are designed for the Hercules, but can be trimmed to fit Pentons.
I had to cut about 2" off of the front edge (up under the seat where it's not seen), trim around the rear shock bolt head for clearance, and use an extra rubber washer on the front two mounting bolts (it comes about 3/16" from touching there).
The finished mounted product looks great, I'm happy with it.
Thanks Rik.

Oh, I thought I should add that I was fitting it to my 1975 400, which I'm sure would pertain to all the 74 or 75 KTM powered Pentons,(6 1/2" inside the rear frame loop).

Hi Rob, It was good meeting you this weekend in Portland. I'm glad the fender worked out for you. Thanks for posting the modifications you had to make.
