Default Rear fender mods for 2006 KLX?

I like the way the Edge tail light kit looks on the late model KLXs but how do you clean up the look of a 2006 model with the way the rear fender is shaped ?

Would a 09 fender fit a 2006 model?

I did a search and couldnt find anything.

I saw a post a couple of days ago and someone from here had used a Maier KLX300 MX rear fender + Edge tail light system on a 06. It looked really good. Not sure if anything had to be modified though.

Do a search and you should find it.

I have a 07 but it looks the same. I used a Cycra KX250/450 rear fender, trimmed the frame and added a Edge tail light. cleans it up nice.

Hi Sideways..... that looks awsome..... did you have to mod much to get the kx fender to fit (other than cutting off some of the frame)?

Yes you use about 1/2 of the fender. Where is angles up to the side panel it is cut straight across. Then I used the stock piece under the seat. And thank you for the comment, she is my baby. LOL

You can use a Maier klx300 rear fender and put on a slick led tail light....I used a Baja Designs light.

Bro how can you say that?

My klx has to be the ugliest but rather practical klx on this forum...
I think the stock plastic looks way better, I am just too cheap to pay for it.
