fenderless tail mod

Nice job Barnery. There is no such thing as overkill when it comes down to custom metal work. The stronger, the better.

I had a couple taillight, licence brackets made of the 3/8's aluminum flatbar and they bounced too much. In fact it folded itself upwards after catching the tire when I hit a pothole the the rear shocks compressed.

Now I have a custom bent piece of stainless plate and the sucked it almost impossible to bend by hand.

CGray34, Thanks. I think it's a 73 or 74 tail and light. Rounded rather than the 76 squared off version.

sorry for the delayed answer, I've been out of town.

Here is the link to the site where I bought the taillight.

It's the taillight all the way on the bottom of the page.

Thanks.

Cgray34, pardon my ignorance, but what taillight is that? It's just what I'm looking for to put on my '76 KZ900.

nvm read rest of post.

Very nice job, looks great.

Hey BH,
I trying to do the same mod to mine. It's a G model though with no mount for the "ducktail". I thought of using fiberglass and making a seat,tail combo, then have now way of attaching the light. I am mainly gonna use it for drag racing,so it needs to hold up also. Any info you can give would be greatly appreciated.Here is a pic.
