I have a new ybr125. I have a small problem. The rear mudguard does not align perfectly with the rear wheel when viewed from the back of the bike. The wheel alignment is correct. I don't know what to do.

Pics so the severity of this potentially kitten killing situation can be assessed and correct info given.

When you say its not perfectly aligned, do you mean its only a tad out?

If so, just ride the bloody thing and stop worrying about something you can't see when riding anyway.

The bike may have been be dropped which is no big deal.

There is a metal frame integrated under your plastic rear fender that actually is used to support the rear turn signal bits.

Most likely this metal bit has been twisted. Either you do no nothing because it is not big deal or you try to straighten the metal frame. There is also a clamp that holds the top of the fender. This bit may be twisted too.

After dropping and metal frame twist, the plastic fender also may be twisted. Means you may need to appply some heat to straighten it too otherwise the plastic pulls the metal frame and you cannot straighten it. When I say heat I mean some mini gas hobby style blow torch. pencil style ones are about £3.

Honestly I would not bother too much.
