Rear Fender Elimination.

[bubblerboy64_imp]

That's terrible. Looks completely out of place.

First I made a cardboard template of the space under the seat.

I decided to make the prototype out of plastic. I found a black plastic concrete mixing tub and cut out the shape

Next, when I get home from Cleveland, I will screw it in and cut the hole for the wires. Eventually I am going to make this out of aluminum or thicker more flexible plastic.

Good job!

I will keep everyone up to date as I get a more professional version completed

Very nice!

If you end up making it out of a tougher plastic and figure out a way to mount that integrated tail light, I'll be completely in awe because that's something I could do with just a dremel and some a few other tools!

Dude, you're raping that CB1100.

He's just personalizing HIS CB 1100.

I can understand Team Bob's comment. I'm a pretty much leave it stock guy, with just a few accessories added. So it kills me to see things like this.

Then I realize that variety is the spice of life and I enjoy seeing what other people can do. And thank goodness they can do it or we might all be riding the exact same bike designed in 1903!

silascopathic,

Have up seen this rear fender on japan.webike.com? It comes chrome, black, or unpainted with two different sized tail lights. Samurider.com also has it. I think I'm going to go this route myself.

I like!

 

[silascopathic_imp]

yes i have. I honestly may do just that in black.. We will see. I will keep all you guyus posted. I havent given up on my project though, I just dont have my wheels back on yet. I would like to have the rear wheel back on before I start making brackets for the tail light

 

[silascopathic_imp]

So I am getting my wheels back tomorrow (separate thread and pics to come!) I have moked up where I want the tail light to be. Honestly I think it looks great! still have to figure out a spot for the license plate.

I need to build better, smaller, more rounded brackets and the spray them black. I am going to keep the under seat pan plastic. I have a string piece of black plastic. I am also looking for a hard rubber I can cut. I am going to be putting on small black posh turn signals back in to the factory spots (but maybe not have them stick out as far)

 

[FUZZY_imp]

Good job! Can't wait to see the wheels.

 

[silascopathic_imp]

neither can I hahaha

 

[Mackerel_imp]

Looking good!
What did you secure the aluminum brackets to?

 

[silascopathic_imp]

Thanks!

[Aussie_imp]

I think you are on to a winner there mate!

 

[silascopathic_imp]
