Good evening Martin, hope you and your family had a good Christmas, motolanna do a nice chrome possibly stainless front mudguard for the GB500 so should drop straight onto the XBR. Hope this helps, keep me posted. Cheers, Michael

Thank you Michael ,that was a quick reply! Hope the Guzzi's OK? Quiet Christmas here-just waiting for brother in law's arrival and back to work for one day tomorrow. Hope you and yours had a good one. Martin

Morning Martin, yes good Christmas thanks. The guzzi went great before I laid it up for the "winter break🤣🤣" however I'm seriously considering selling both the ktm390 and the guzzi and going for one of those new 650 Norton atlas nomads. Early days yet tho so not fully made my mind up. Keep me posted on the mudguard 👍👍
Cheers, Michael

Haven't seen the 650 Atlas 650 Michael as i'm a bit out of touch but i would be interested in trying one of the newish Enfield twins as they seem to come in at a reasonable price.Will Google the Norton so am up to speed!

Morning Martin, yes I was looking at the Enfield interceptor down at the nec show a month or so ago, lot of bike for ones money. Nice looking thing t'boot too, I prefer the Norton nomad tho, plus they're still a genuine British bike. Admittedly more money but hey, you only live once, or so they tell me. 😁😁
Best of luck with the front mudguard 👍.... cheers, Michael

Michael,have just checked out the Norton and i can see why you want one!For what it is, the price is competitive and -as you say-it's a Brit!

Hi Michael. No not yet as funds are limited-i was hoping something s/h and cheaper might turn up!
