Went to start on the undertail today and found a little rats nest. so needless to say I had to take care of it.

This is what I found 8)

This is what it looks like now

this was the hackjob undertail that this kid "made"

I need to get some more resin and mold fabric to get to the next step on the undertail... no pics for now. I'll keep posting progress.

Wow, I'm glad my homemade untertail looks better than that

That is why it pays to just buy a damn undertail kit.

 

[bmetz99]

Yow.

Every once in a while I get the idea that they should have some basic qualifications classes and testing and maybe a required license before they'll let someone buy tools. This is one of those occasions.

Good luck, and smart move on getting some decent turn signals.

that job didn't add any value to the bike :shock: at least your able to clean up the wiring, still have a big hole in the undertail for road crap to work its way into, I hope your a fair weather rider

My first impression when the first pics finally downloaded using the mighty dial-up... :shock: :shock:


My next impression when all the pics finally downloaded using the mighty dial-up... :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:


My first thought when reading that you were going to put order to the spaghetti of wires.... WHAT :shock: THE :shock: HELL :shock: !!!


I wish I had that ability.

Please keep us posted. The less mechanically inclined find this pretty 8) .

....at least the wiring looks ok now. Ill consider the fender eliminator in progress

 

[Mrclamp]

you'll love the fiberglass undertail! :wink: most likely won't get to do the bulk of that work until next week. (out of disposable money). I'll keep up with the pics and progress. (and I'll make the pics a little smaller next time)


Thanks,
Mike

I'm not a fan of intergrated turn signals. plus it looked like he chewed on it to cut the metal :lol:

Thanks,

The wiring looks much better. Nice work. I'm glad to see you're re-doing that FE. That's definitely someone who didn't take pride in his work.

You are shopping for a new rear tire right?

yep. getting some metzler sportec M1's. put a couple thousand miles on them last year and I liked them. I love having the 160/120 combo. just under $200 for both tires. (I also live 5 mins away from kneedraggers :wink: )

Cool. That's a good price.

 

[PGHRIDER]

Cool. That's a good price.

I paid $160 for both of mine installed on the bike.

 

[Northwind]

Did he fit that, or was his bike struck by a bit of shrapnel from an explosion?

Bored, so I thought I would Resurrect the oldest thread on this board....
