I have been looking at a Gixxer rear for mine. I like very much, was there much fabricating involved & have you used the Gixxer subframe?

Nice Job :)

Thanks everyone for the kind comments,
The sub is gen1 sv. I got one 2nd hand and with an angle grinder took just about everything off. The undertail is 3mm aluminium plate bolted directly to the lower rails, the battery holder is all thats left of the stocker.
The tail its self is a fibreglass copy of 08 gix1000 it bolts to the undertail.
There was a lot of measuring cutting and filing. Making lots of brackets from scratch from aluminium stock.
The seat mounts are standard.
I wanted to keep the SV seat rather than get the gix seat, for the mixture of "looks".
Almost everything was purchased on ebay (on the cheap), including the racebike take off stop/tail light, chinese seat cowl, L.E.D indicators (hopeless), stainless steel mushroom head fasteners and titanium bolts for the cowl.
the mufflers bolt directly to the sub frame rails.
This burned a lot of my time and some money, but I am happy with the result.
