it really depends on you. i have not done it yet so i am not sure what I am going to have to make, but all i could imagine is the seat, and maybe some brackets to mount the front of the tail by the fuel tank. once i get it done, i will surely post a pic for ya.

I have an '88 hurricane that I am converting to a 600rr tail section off a '04. complete with a custom under tail exhaust. I looked at my options and desided to convert the frame to fit the 600rr sub-frame. not as difficult as I originaly thought it would be.

do you have any bigger pics?

looks awesome so far, how are you planning on routing the midpipe? i was originally going to mount the exhaust as well but didnt want to swap swingarms to get midpipe clearance.

just make sure you dont route it like this, cause that will ruin all your hardwork.

Those are the best pics I have right now. The pipeis going to route near the same as a factory 600rr. the side portion will be forme oval to reduce clearance with-out restricting. I also have the rear swing arm assy. from an '06 rr that is being cut and modified to fit my frame allowing for a larger rim. this is a big project that I am not tackling in the garage. A friend of mine is a tool and die maker and is completing the nec. mods to the swing arm. should look very trick. I HOPE

sounds like it. that was all my original ideas, but i decided not to do that much to it. if i was going to do that i would strip it down, powdercoat frame and rr swingarm, and some major things. i didnt want to mess with the suspensions was a major reason among many others. would love to see it when its done, just dont make it look better than mine....lol!
