Default F3 grab rail mod

hi,

I have just recently bought a 95 f3 US import (I am in UK).... so it has the square tail light not the oval! I need to fit a grab rail as i have to 'lift' the bike round to get it into my yard through a stupid small gate!! At the moment I have to reach for the pillion pegs for lifting and Im not convinced of their strength under this strain?!
So....... Is it possible to fit a grab rail (would have to cut fairing I suppose) and how would I do this? Also, does anyone know where I would get one in the UK and would it be different due to the bike being US import as opposed to UK model or is this irrelivant?

Cheers

Look around for a pair that you like from what ever bike. Then look at a online OEM to see how they are mounted and modify you rear end. I think you need to drill holes through the plactics and into the subframe and attach rails. Maybe and some spacers in there also.
