If I could hazzard a guess I bet that the fenders Ray is selling are the Honjo's - we traded a bunch of them to Ray awhile back - so if he calls them reproduction than its probably them. Ray is actually no longer the owner of Classic Bikes in the UK - the new owner, Martin, seems quite nice. Recently there was a bit of "Ray bashing" on this group. Ray really goofed with us recently and said to check back in a week as he would decide how to take care of it. Before I called him back I found a nice check in my mailbox. Ray always made sure to make good if there was a problem and he really pulled through. I wish him well in his new endevours - and lets hope he keeps Bates alive!

P.S regarding real LeFol fenders... For those who want the real deal - not reproductions, contact Grant Handley. The real deals will be in the multiple hundred range, but where else will you find them?
