Did the normal cut all the brackets off. I left all of the mounting locations for the tail plastics.



Then I hacked off the factory taillight mounting bracket.

This will be my new mount for the tail light(F4i). It moves it up about 3 inches and in about 2.


New undertail. I'll be mounting my VR to it. Check out the mad welding skills, if it was structural, I'd be dead.


I have an overflow can that Nate powdered the same red as my Yoshi, but I'm still undecided when or where I'll mount it. In the meantime, with the knowledge from the other tail chop write-up, I picked up a Polaris 500 overflow for $4.75 off ebay.

That's all for now, I'll finish it up tomorrow. That's actually a lot of work involved besides cutting the plastic.
