1500 vs 1600 fenders

**Jared** · 09-14-2009, 11:30 AM

Are there any differences between the 1500 fenders and the 1600 fenders?

The reason I ask is because there seems to be fender tips specifically for the 1600 and 1500. Whats the difference?

I know that the rear fender is shaped differently, not sure about the front.

Width, probably. When are you going to update your sig pictures with photos of the new bike?

**Jared** · 09-14-2009, 02:46 PM

I'll update the sig pics soon. It's raining today so I wont be taking the bike out.

The rear fender is defiantly different. I have the National Cycle fender tips (3 piece set), and the front 2 was listed for either the 1500, or 1600. The rear fender had different part #s for the 1500 and 1600. So I think it would be safe to assume the front fenders are the same, as far as fender tips go.

The 1600 has a different shape, more than the ft, but the ft has a differnt way to be mounted, and the trim won't swap from 1500 to 1600.

The 1500 has a nice wide, fairly flat fender on both the front and the rear; makes the mud flaps fit really well and stay on with Velcro. The 1600, both front and rear are a bit narrow because they are pointier. I haven't put a set of mud flaps on a 1600 but I will be soon and I'm probably going to have to use screws to mount the flaps.

Is there anyone that owns a 1600 and 1500 that could take a side by side picture?

VulcanE · 09-16-2009, 04:32 PM

I don't have pics comparing them, but here is a couple of links to National Cycle showing the fender tips. I have a friend with an '03, and he has the same front tips as my 1600. Click the numbers for the links.......

1600

1500

That first picture of the rear tip for a 1600 is a Suzuki, not a Nomad. It is either a C50 or C90.

Utah, just look at your picture in your signature and the one in CycleCats signature. It will give you an idea of the difference.
