I just picked up a 2007 R1 tail and am planning on modding it to fit my 93 Vmax. Has anyone done this and if so, what kind of advice could you offer up?
 
Done it on my last bike, my suggestion is buy lots of metal before hand. 1 put it where you want it, then build the framing up to the tail rather that making the tail fit the framing.
 
That is pretty much what I am looking at doing.... just need to gauge how the seat contacts the front edge of the fairing. I want it to be as smooth as possible so I will probably be foaming and glassing to get a smooth edge and then making a custom rear seat to fit in the hole. I just want everything to have lots of support to prevent vibration
 
Feel free to over do everything, making it strong is more important than keeping it light. Weld it strong and take your time. Please post pics as you go this is one of my favorite mods!
