new tail coming together!!!

Post by sonny86504 »

working on my fzr for the past few weeks, this is what me and a buddy have came up with as far as a tail is concerned. Next will be a new belly pan, custom seat, and gauge brackets to mount the new gauge. Hope you enjoy the pics.

A bit of talented metal work there, very impressive.
The only thing I would have done would have made the bottom edge of the tail run parallel to your exhaust can.

That is what I plan on doing, I have a whole new exhaust set up and I am going to try to make it parallel. Thanks for the input guys....

Hi,
I hope you fit a Hugger on that back wheel or you are going to get very dirty and / or wet when it rains

this is the new seat i made, just used wood and a lil bit of sheet metal. ended up using the original foam from factory seat, just trimmed it. this is how its coming along now, got the whole tail all welded up. next is to drill the mounting holes and get all the electronics tucked up in the tail. almost got the gauge mount completed also. here is how she looks at the moment.
ALL COMMENTS WELCOMED, THANKS...
