Looking for plastic enduro fenders

[whynot]

I'm looking for plastic enduro fenders for my 1973 Triumph TR5T. The original heavy chromed steel fenders are long gone which is fine by me, I want to go with plastic like the factory ISDT bikes

For the rear fender, I'm thinking of using the Preston Petty with taillight assembly --

FOR THE RIDER WITH ALMOST EVERYTHING!

Are there other similar rears with taillight?

For the front, I need a smooth curve, no molded-in "platform" for mounting, which the Preston Petty front has:
Front Fenders

So my question is, can you point me to a plain front fender? White plastic. On-line source, or is there a shop that stocks such fenders?

My bike currently:




In the PO's barn June 2017:

Great pics - your bike and the 73 ISDT. Don Cutler of Maine was on the USA team 1970-1975 and Gordon Razee of RI on the 1970 team. Preston Petty plastics - that takes me back in time.

great looking ride, must be fun ... how about something plastic and white from an early Husky?

there are a few online resources, here is one example:

Thanks, guys, I'll check out the Husky bits. I'm also looking for a skid plate. The originals are *rare* as they say on eBay. So I'll use plastic or fabricate something. The old skool solution was a coal shovel.

Some history of this bike -- I'm the fourth owner, bought it last year from Bob Hicks who used it for years as his woods bike. The bike showed signs of trail and woods riding but no evidence that it ever was crashed -- what would you expect, we're talking about Bob Hicks here. Bob bought it from a mutual friend, who bought it from the original owner. The selling dealer, in VT, was the late Lloyd (Bud) Provin Sr.

Last year i went for a couple of day-long rides with Bob and some of his North Shore buddies. Bob is close to 90 now. I had to pick up the pace to keep up with him.

Triumph made only 1900 of these bikes 1973-1974. They stuffed the 500 twin motor into the BSA B50 single 500 frame.

Was just a Razee’s today and they told me that was the bike when the Europeans came to the US in 73. Cool ride you have there.

Some vintage eye candy I saw today.

Didn’t mean to hijack and forgot to say supposedly all the old Petty designs are available.

^^ That's no hijack, so no problem

I'll have to get to Razee's soon ... and to the Museum of Vintage Trail Bikes in Cheshire MA:
The history of trail bikes | The Berkshire Eagle | Pittsfield Breaking News, Sports, Weather, Traffic

Yes, the British team rode this model in the '73 ISDT in Western MA. The pic in my first post shows Brit rider Robert Browning on one of them. As I recall, they placed well, first place going to the Czech team that year, I think it was ... .

I'm planning on using the Petty rear fender with tail lamp assembly, while for the front, I'll need a smooth curve, no flat mounting area -- the bike uses a steel bracket about 10" long that screws into the bottom of the steering stem. You can see it on my NJ friend's '74 model:

Oh that is sweet. Thanks for the heads up on the museum.
