So i have this super bad case of modificationitis, look it up its real ,
basicaly i cant stop taking stuff apart and changing them.

so on this bike ive always loved how small and nimble it is, but thought the tail was a little on the long and wierd looking side. so i got to chopping and ended up with what you see here.

ive never like the little tool bag on the back, and i only use the bike as a daily commuter/cruising toy so the bag had to go and with that came the whole sudden idea that the bike could use a compartment since have my pockets full is a pain while riding.

take a looksee i did all this in a couple of hours and had to go to work so did it as functional as possible and slapped it together. im going to clean and shave it up the frame and give it a paint coat to look more presentable.

i was also wondering if there are any ways to convert the two screws the hold the seat down to some sort of pin reales or locking pins since when the seat is on the tail only goes up enough to stick your wallet and hand it. but if the seat was to pop off, the tail goes almost straight up and gives you real good access.

also up next is to rig up a locking mechanism

any comments ideas and quetions wellcome,

 

Nice mod but please tell me thats not your Bikini in the 5th photo

 

nice!!! out of curiosity what did you mount the turn signals to?

 

nice work.. bungee access, just enough space for paperwork and a few tools or whatever - sweet.. can we get a shot from a bit farther back to see an overall view?

SF's have clip ons ???

 

of all the people to go beyond cutting the bit below the plate and mod the rear fender, i have to say this is the cleanest job. good work.

 

hahaha i was biki delivery that day. horrible thought...me in a bikini.

SF's dont come with clip ons, as a matter of fact there are very few that fit the forks and still leave you enough grip room on the top triple clap because if u notice it tappers in a bit right under the top clamp, in one of the shots u can see my old set of handlebars i was using right above the red tool box. but i laid it down in the canyons a few weeks back and bent them slightly... soo good enough excuse to throw the clip on's on.

the blinkers i had to make two custom brackets and the brackets attacht to the old mounting bolts on the back of the taillight. so the blinkers and taillight are one piece now. ill try to take a picture to show the brackets just a few pieces of aircraft aluminium i had lyin around.

im goin to be taking it all apart and and trim and paint probably this weekend ill make sure to post pics of the finish product.
