Default updating plastics?

Sorry for the Noob question, but I searched and found nothing answering my question...so here goes...

Are there any aftermarket plastics, or ability to make newer plastics fit onto a 90 600F? Specificly the rear fender, just a little square for my liking. If not, ill deal with it or make something, but figured i would ask. Im very mechanicly inclined, just never owned a bike 'til now, so gotta start fresh.

Thank

Doug

Honostly, it's not that it's not worth it, it's just that there aren't many of the bikes around that people want to spend the time or money making look new. I found this out with my F2. There are very few companies that make products for it. If you want to make it look new, i'd pick up the parts for whatever bike you want to model it after, and, fabricate the mounts yourself. If you're really wanting to modernize it, that's pretty much the way to go.

i have to agree. i have tried to find parts for my 93 f2. i can't find jack. start fabricating mounts and work from there or keep looking. you'll find stuff eventually but cost might be high.
