At the moment have a standard rear mudguard on the bike as was taking too long to make a seat to match the GS750 tail piece so this mudguard is in the cupboard waiting.
|
 Making a stainless steel rear mudguard.
|
 Started as a flat 1.5mm thick piece of plate, then bent into a 'U' section. Welded 2 bars across to help prevent distortion while welding.
|
 Made some stainless M8 threaded inserts and welded them in with stainless rods.
|
Welded on the end plate.
|
 Welded on the front inserts drilled 6.5mm then cut off the cross supports now the welding is finished
|
 Will tidy up the welds with a dremel and a grinding wheel.
|
 Welded on 2 x M6 inserts for bolting on the rear light and number plate.
|
 Started cutting the profile, had to use a disc cuter as stainless is about 1.6mm thick and almost impossible to saw by hand.
|
|
 Started polishing the mudguard.
