A fender assembly and associated air transfer and dirt protection system for an off-the-road sports racing motorcycle. The fender assembly incorporates an upper portion and a lower portion which are mated to define an air transfer duct which extends from a forward region of the upper portion upper surface to an air exit opening at that same upper surface which is located adjacent the air receiving surface of an engine radiator. The fender assembly is configured for co-pivotal movement with the steering fork assembly of the motorcycle such that the duct will supply coolant air into the radiator notwithstanding the pivotal or steering movement of the forward wheel of the vehicle. A venturi restrictive region is formed within the air transfer duct to enhance the velocity of air exiting into the radiator. To control the buildup of mud at the underside of the fender, the upper portion of the fender is configured of a polymeric material, which incorporates an upwardly disposed pigmented layer. However, the lower portion of the fender assembly is formed of polymeric material, the underside being a layer of unpigmented porcelain which avoids the adherence of mud particles and dirt to such underside and thus, avoids the weight-contributing mud buildup. With the system of the invention, a fairing assembly is configured with a forward air scoop opening which cooperates with the air exit opening of the fender-borne air transfer duct to direct otherwise lost velocity enhanced coolant air across the cylinder head region of the motorcycle engine. |

An all terrain vehicle (ATV) includes a plurality of wheels and a fender structure positioned over the wheels having a support portion designed as and defining a load-bearing surface. The fender structure may include a plurality of raised support portions that increase rigidity and load capacity. Additionally, it is not necessary to support either the fender structure or the support portion using the bumper of the ATV. The fender structure may be formed with plastic material, such as polyethylene, polypropylene or fiberglass-charged polyethylene, and may be manufactured using a blow-molding technique or an injection molding technique. The ATV may also include mud guards and a floor board that extends between the mud guards. The mud guards and the floor board may be formed as an integral or one piece unit with the fender structure. The mud guards can be injection molded or blow-molded while the fender structure can be blow-molded. |
