You will just need to know that the tabs on the bike fenders WILL break off due to motor vibrations etc...One of the many reasons why I used plastic aftermarket fenders on my bike to replace the metal fenders, they are lighter in weight as well...There have been many accidents, head injuries and even deaths caused by especially the front fender when they break off causing it to jam into the front tire and totally collapsing the front wheel.
Have a good read and see the pics of exactly what I am describing when it has happened to others here on the forums in the past.

Safety - Beware the fenders!!!
Don't take the warning lightly!!!!!! My son in law is in the hospital in critical condition cause of the fender getting into the tire and rolling around till it locked the front wheel and threw him over the bars. Of course he wasn't wearing a helmet:helmet: This just happened Wednesday. Here's...

Also, flip the fuel filter the opposite way than what you have it...The larger end is supposed to face the carburetor and the smaller end is supposed to face the gas tank...If you look through the see through filter on the smaller end, you will see a small round magnet attached to the round metal plate inside it, that magnet is to pick up any possible metal particles that may be still in the tank after it was made.

I took them off and installed v brakes instead so I have that extra safety because I don't wanna die in high school.
I don't want you to die in HS either...lol.
I have a joke about dying though, it goes like this,
"I absolutely refuse to croak and make that many people happy all at once"...lol.
