Gsxr front fender difference

I'm looking to get a front fender for a set of 89 GSXR RSU forks.

Looking at the parts listings, they do look different and have slightly different mounting plates. However I was wondering if the mount locations for the forks are the same.

Can a fender from a 87 be used on 89 forks and visa versa?

Thanks,

Nic
 
BTW, Airtech's catalog would be a good place to get an idea of what will fit.

The 1100 kept the same suspension in '89 as the '88 IIRC. The 750 moved on.
 
1100 forks sorry. Yeah I know they were RSU untill 90. USD starting in 91

The fender assembly looks different between the 87 and 89 years. But the mounts look like the should line up in the same spot.

I'll check the airtech catalog.

Thanks,


Nic

I have an '86 in the garage and use to have an '88 fork on mine. They do look as if they mount the same. The 1st generation fender is a bit flatter than the '88 and up but they do look like they could be substituted.
