I have a CBR 1000F 1990. I was wondering how I can cut the back part of the frame with? I have a wire feed welder.
Angle Grinder with cutting disc mate.

Hey Drakstar, welcome aboard mate. On both of mine I used a cutting disc mate, but some people prefer to use the good old hacksaw so they don't make any nasty mistakes.

cut off blade in a grinder is the go.
I cut heaps of bits off mine ( had to weld back on a few too!)

use a hacksaw mate
even if its steel you'll get a cleaner more precise cutand it wont be that hard
BTW - hello welcome to the forum.

welcome, i used a die grinder with a cut off wheel for the not critical cuts, then i used a hack saw and some elbow grease for the rest. anything you have will work. If you dont have the tools, hacksaw will be the cheapest to purchase.
