Welcome aboard novice.

Check in w/ the 929 section for help. Hopefully, you'll find what you need.

Novice, welcome to the thread. The fact of have the 929 as a first bike isn't as bad as they are making it. That was my first sportbike and I am going on 10 years now having it. Always respect it, ride within your limits and enjoy the forum. Lots of great people on here. Where you from??? and post up some pictures of that canary yellow 929 when you get a chance.

As for the front fender(mudguard as you say) you can check out www.ebay.com. sometimes a little hard to find parts and such for the 929 but ebay would be a good start.
