Does anyone know if the T's front fender will bolt up onto on 06 front end? Part number for it?

Thanks,
AR

It looks like the exact same front fender from my 06 Lightning Long, even down to the color of Sunburst Orange. I haven't seen the XT in person so I don't know for sure if the colors match. Should just bolt right on no problem, don't know if it uses the same size bolts or not.

You also need an "L" bracket from the Lightning that connects the lower triple clamp to the bottom of the headlight assembly, and I think a wire form to support the lower portion of the break line.

Yes it is the same. I have one on my 06 Uly. It came off a Lightning. Bolts right on. : )

It has to fit, I stole the front end fender set off a Uly to replace my stocker ;) (bucking the trend of going the other way)

Does anyone know the part number and price? I'd need a black one.

THanks,

Fender: M1662.02A8MW
Wireform front brake bracket: H0418.02A8A
Headlight bracket: M0619.1AD
Bolts for headlight bracket (2) AA0404.11CVB
Just a reminder that the headlight bracket takes a little creativity to make it work.

Thanks. I guess I just realized that I should have posted this in knowledge base. There's just more action here.

If I do the fender conversion I was planning to add some fork skins to protect the exposed fork tube. I have used them on my dirt bike for a couple of year and have not had any problems

Looks like the coverage is a lot less in the rear. Looks like a lot more road spray would be shooting at the engine.

Replace the grey chin spoiler piece with a black one and the road scum becomes less visible. Plus it looks better too.
