Alrighty, so im a rather poor kid and i decided i liked all those cool kids on the forums with the fender eliminator kits and well, i wanted my bike to look super sexy on the back end, without spending any cash.

After i converted my tail to the 97/98, i did a bit of cutting and removing of my own.
I took off everything i could, and it turned out better than i thought.



First I removed the turn signals, and stripped the wires.

I wasn't planning on keeping the signals, but i wanted to encorporate them into the taillight if i could.

so i bent and easily broke off the aluminum edges except for one part.




Then i wired it up



And mounted it alongside the taillight.



Repeat to the otherside



Made sure it was working



YES!!


And then, booyah



No more bulky back.

But nows i has no special secret compartment.

OH NOESSS!

 

awesome i love the mod. I had a question though. How did you do the RED BULL can? Thats pretty cool.

 

haha it's a pretty common way of hiding things
take a red bull can, cut the top off and the bottom, and then i think i cut off an additional cm or so to make it fit the way it did, and wrap it snug.
then tighten.

i can take some pix of how i did it if you need step by step.

 

that's a full picture of it


EDIT: i found the link here on the forums.
https://cbrforum.com/forum/how-mechanical-40/how-shock-canister-wrap-84058/
but for the record, i did this without reading it.

 

hey man thanks! i think i might hook mine up with a 8oz monster can. Thanks again man!

 

Heh I did nearly the exact same thing on my bike when I got it. I finally decided to pony up the cash and literally 2 days ago my clear alternatives rear integrated tail light came in and installed it. I'll say this; the stock lights are way more visible versus LEDs, even with the setup you've got now and like I had, but I like having yellow flashers and I like the aesthetics of the clear alternative light better.

Looks good man! Really cleans up the tail well, imo.

Edit: You need to get yourself a 97/98 seat man! All those gaps with the F2/early F3 seat!!

 

damn, good job bro! looks pretty bitchin'. I might try it on my F3

 

thanks, yea it's next on my list.
hard to find on ebay though cheap at least

 

I hear ya. Gotta be patient with the bay and you'll get yourself a deal.

 

i love the mod dude, i love seeing other people's creativity. especially when you can get the mod for free!
