Just about finished. Like some of you guys suggested, I cut the extra metal off with a hacksaw, then used an angle grinder with a 60-grit flap wheel to grind down the ribs on the bottom and contour to suit. Scuffed it up, primed and painted with a rattle can; I'll either polish it or get it powder coated this spring. Cut and welded a license plate/turn signal bracket, too. That is frost on the sides of the frame...it was in the single digits here last night. Thanks for the help, Bill |

Was worried you went nuts with a grinder on the fuell tank. |

You might need to get some knobby's! Take some close ups, hard to see details, but I like the position of the turn sigs. Do they vibrate very much? |

Not knobbies, but some Scorpion Sync's, maybe. I only got the bike muddy pushing into the storage shed. We've been soaked for weeks. I haven't even started the bike since getting the tail/bracket fitted, so don't know how it will behave. I do all my projects by trial and error, so it I need to change it, I will.
