That would be great, Steve. I only need to see the 350 rear mudguards. I already have a 250 front mudguard which is the same as for the 350 so that's OK.

I will send you a PM re arrangements to meet.

I bought the lightweight mudguard from Roy at Kempton. When offered up to my 250 frame it was obvious it was from a 350.
When the bottom fixing is lined up, the top four holes in mudguard and frame are way out, so the 350 guard is a lot longer.
I thought that I might be able to re-drill the bottom fixing, and cut off the surplus metal hanging down below the swinging arm, now nearly touching the floor, but on stepping back and observing the profile of wheel and guard they were way different, so conclude the 350 guard has a bigger radius as well.
So if any one has a 250 rear mudguard he wants to swap for a 350 please get in touch.
