single seat - need some good suggestions
« on: September 20, 2006, 12:23:42 PM »
Hi

Im building a street fighter from my 95 B4.

I have a good idea for the bike but cant find any for the tail unit.
I got a DUCATI 748 tail unit for the B4 but its to big (I will save it for the next project S.F from a B6 :wink: )

I need photos, tips and any thing I can use.

 :thanks:

Yeah, what is it with the Germans and those fugly tails? They look like a face that someones smacked with the flat side of a shovel.

I'm going to try and do the whole single-seat thing. I've bought a spare set of rear plastics, and as soon as I have the cash, I'll be buying a single seat cowl from WH Accessories, as they seem to be the only company that does one for the B4.

The plan is to bring the two together to form an integrated unit (i.e. without the join seam). Don't quite know how thats going to work yet, though.

Now that's even more 'potthäßlich' (butt ugly) than the German streetfighters. Not that I like the specific ones on my pics but at least they have a tail :monkeymoon: :lol:

gotta say, I think they all look like crap. personally, i way prefer a solo seat setup instead of chopping the tail like that.

oh, and I like that someone bothered to put straps on that "bikini top" he he

What about a Ducati tail unit ?
I tried to fit it but I think that the tail is too big for the bike.
But maybe if ill  paint it in black it wil looks better.

What do you think ?
