My **** - tail tidy

Nothing gives me more pleasure to see how many folks used my template to cut off that fugly plastic and replace it with that smooth thing. leans up the rear nicely. The wife does not agree though, when it rains her back ends up soaked! Sorry guys!

BTW zunkus, how did you make the template, as in how did you draw it ect?

Would you believe me that the thing started off as an almost freehand drawing!.
What I did is that I took rough measurements and drew them out on a piece of card. Then cut that out as a starter for a template. I then became religious again and started praying that I wouldn't ruin a brand new (at the time) motorcycle by cutting the rear plastic off after dismantling the whole rear end. I then mounted back the rear and tested the cardboard against the hole I created. It was almost ok except for the curvy bit at the end so I taped some more card at that end and re-cut. The template now fitted perfect. I was not happy though before scanning my cutout to my computer and redrew that in Macromedia Freehand. The curves were now much better done now, printed that out on laser printer stuck the print to card, cut and tested again. Perfect. I posted the template for all yea to enjoy.

you went through alot a trouble to help other people.

ill make ya a medal when im not late for work.

I work as a radar technician for Eurocontrol but also work as a freelance designer for some big clients such as vodafone, ford, mazda, jaguar, yamaha, P&G, canon, local companies and now virgin drinks. It might sound I'm pretty loaded but the salary is not that much here and with my ever growing family I might say I get by ok. Nothing over the top, I still live in a flat and ride an SV not a Ducati Desmosedici forgodsakes Always wondered what it'll be like for me if I was doing the same abroad. Family keeps me here though.

is it as interesting as it sounds. what do you design for these companies its quite a wide aray of companies.

also can you make a radar gammer for speed guns HA HA.

Yes very much so. I design advertorial material, such as adverts, posters, supermarket wobblers, shelf talkers, stationery, billboards etc. I also do illustrations for vodafone mainly.

As a radar technician I'm currently maintaining two radars at a remote site on the west side of the island. It's situated on a cliff face which is a very nice place to be if you like heights. Great views in the morning, and more so the evening when you can see the setting sun on the Mediterranean sea.

I'm attaching these url if you'd like to see the radar.
Did not post pictures directly so I won't disturb the other posters.
