I prefer to use Banditrods rear end but if you are talking about one for your bike there are heaps mate and it all depends on what look you are after, do you want a fat arse ot skinny? Do you want it straight ot pointing up lie ze germans?

Welcome mate and good luck with your project, there's plenty of pics and info on here
thats gonna be an interesting project, i've just convinced a mate i work with that he should rip the farings of his old gpz600 and build that up with some form of forced fed breathing :D

im not into the german fighter's as much but im likeing the gixxer rear end so far from what ive seen and there some awesome rides on here to take note of.
but the good thing is that im going to have fun moding my gpx as the motor is really good.
so soon as i get a rear end sorted guys i will start hosting up some pics for you all to see
thanks heaps for the info

Get the coping saw on that front guard and shape it smaller mate.
Here's what I did with some of my first builds:

It lightens up the look of the front end heaps.
