Purpose and Use

The rear mudguard supports the motorcycle’s rear bodywork layout and helps control water, mud and road debris thrown by the rear wheel. It also provides model-specific mounting locations for associated rear components. Replacement may be required after collision damage, corrosion, cracked mountings or an incorrect previous modification. It will not correct a bent frame, misaligned wheel, damaged stays or unsuitable tyre clearance.

Not included unless physically packed: mudguard stays, tail lamp, number-plate bracket, reflectors, wiring harness, grommets, rubber parts, fasteners, seat, grab rail, indicators or fitting labour.

Installation Guidance

1. Confirm the VIN, 880027 requirement, Bullet 500 UCE BS4 generation and Forest Green colour.
2. Photograph the existing wiring route, spacers, stays and hardware before dismantling.
3. Support the motorcycle securely and remove the seat and rear attachments in the workshop-manual sequence.
4. Disconnect lamps and indicators without pulling the wiring.
5. Inspect all mudguard stays, frame mounts and fasteners for bending or corrosion.
6. Test-position the new painted part with protective film in place; never force misaligned holes.
7. Transfer compatible grommets and hardware only after inspection.
8. Route wiring through the correct clips and protect it from tyre and sharp-edge contact.
9. Tighten fasteners progressively to the official specification.
10. Verify tyre clearance through suspension travel, lamp operation and secure seat/number-plate mounting.

Professional installation is recommended. Painted panels can be damaged by forced alignment, incorrect spacers or overtightened fasteners.

Paint and Care Guidance

• Inspect colour and finish before installation or removing all protective packing.
• Wash with pH-neutral shampoo and a soft microfiber cloth.
• Do not use fuel, thinner, harsh solvent or abrasive compound on paint or decals.
• Keep tools and metal hardware away from the painted surface during fitting.
• Use protective washers/grommets where specified to prevent paint cracking around mounts.
• Dry the underside after washing and inspect periodically for chips or corrosion.
