just getting ready to put a nice tail section on my bike and was curious what has everyone done to brace the tail so it doesn't put too much stress on the tail. Let me know what you have used

 

fiberglass the **** out of it. mostly where the side screws go.

 

piece of wood with 1/4 inch of foam glued to it behind the plastic inbeteen the seats

 

Any pics of this

 

Powers is suppose to have a subframe support. I think some people said they're going to try and get a group buy together around tax return time. That's what I'm waiting for.

 

this one?

 

Yeah, that's the one.

 

After reglassing the tail section 3 or 4 times i'd say that it'd be a good idea to buy that support, one of my friends made one just like that at his machine shop, no problems since then

 

Where exactly does it connect?

 

im talking about supporting the tail fairing guys...not the subframe

 

Fiberglass the inside around corners and mounting holes.

Also, take a piece of wood 1"x4" or something like that, couple sheets of plywood will work too, and wrap it in packing foam. Now put that on your subframe against the part where your feet go for seat standers. Test fit the tail and make thicker or thinner until you can push on the tail when mounted and it feels solid.

Goodluck.
