Well I was having a little mooch around Larges thread and I saw him using big bits of foam to use as a plug for a fiberglass seat.

I just want to make a tank protector so I found a bit of HD floor insulation foam at work just begging me to take it home. |

| Anyway I covered my tank with polytheene and tape stretched it tight, then put on the foam plug and duct taped over the top. |

I'm quite pleased with that. Now it just needs a bit more filling and a coat of satin black paint. |

| Its been a good day all in all, and another two easy little jobs knocked on the head thanks to HueyonaBlade and Large. Alot of Knowlage on this site, and some clever people too, I done think for one moment I am in their league, But I am quite happy with my Blade, and happy to have a go as well. |

| Thanks for your help mate, I like it too, although not 100% sure if it should be black or the same colour as the final paint job on the bike. Black might be good as too much of the same colour might look a bit contrived. Dun'no yet. |

Top job. I lack the patience for fiddly jobs like that. I would have cut up a jandal/thong/flip flop glued it on and mattblacked it.
Just rememberd also! sorry if reposting this but the racing baffle conversion, messy fiddly LOUD. Very satisfied but really fucking loud, going to put some pipes back in with a slight baffle (holes drilled through with a washer welded on end sort of thing) you would not have had them running either!!!!! Mine shot blue flames out 2-3 feet out the back (which I liked a lot) Went for a quick squirt up the freeway and came back to find my new cover and light melted Patched both up but was fucking grumpy. it seems the length you take out to take the ends off puts them closer to the light etc than stock, also without the inner pipe on the ends more so. So there is an expensive mistake for you not to make. Enjoying watching the build. |

I laughed like fuck when I read this matey Thanks for the heads up. I cant wait to hear mine roar Ha Ha.... As I'm getting the guy in the next town to weld up my link pipe for me I might ask him to add 20mm or so to my can pipes.
I would have loved to have been there when you took off mate, I think I would have been rolling around on the floor clutching my ribs, and laughing like fuck, as you launched forward with two blue flames comming out just under your arse and your rear light melting plastic on the rear wheel.
FUCKIN PRICLESS MATE!!!

Now that's and interesting take! I have always modified the easy part (the seat) to match the tank by re-upholstering it, but not you! You alter the tank to meet the seat. Radical man, but I love it! |

To be honest matey I took off the seat to add a bit more foam and saw that the cover only just fitted the sub-structure and adding anything to it would make the cover not fit. So from that point of view I took the easy option and made a tank protector. I guess we all see things different matey. Good job we do really, coz I now got an 06 ZXR front fender on it on the advice of HueyonaBlade, and I would have never thought of that.
