The 99 & 00 model fender was different from the 01 & 02. But I don't think it was that different. Person you got it from may have may have been mistaken about the bike it was from. Look for the part number on the item and check it that way.

that might be. Alot of confused people on ebay then. I have the right one, I got it from someone here. I was just looking for a second one so I can make the cutiing on it prettier.

Ok, 99-00 used the one in the parts fiche. The 01-02 uses the one in the pic you have.

The 01-02 brake light mounts in the plastic tail and the 99-00 tail light mounts in the battery tray.

Don't forget that the two series also use different sized batteries. The 01-02 uses a smaller battery than the 99-00. I found out the hard way. :(
