Default homeade undertail/fender eliminator

Alright fellas, so i've got a few ideas floating around for a custom homeade undertail and was wondering what ideas are lingering around with you all...

I did a search on this forum and didn't come up with much. Any ideas on a custom undertail or fender eliminator and i'm all ears!!

thanks

I used that walk through to make mine and for $10 worth of material it looks and functions fine. Cutting out the taillight "shelf" with metal snips is very hard and time consuming so if you can use a jigsaw, go for it.

I posted a site a while back that sells all types of plastic (specifically ABS) for cheap. If you think you might need a flat sheet of something you could get something like a 3' x 4' sheet of ABS for $30+/-.

I guess you are just talking about making an undertail only or fender eliminator. Check out some of the sites that sell race tails or even pocket bike tails if you really want to do something different.

axsys- you ever ride two up? Ever had the tire hit that yet? It looks like it could, I might be wrong.
