belly pan installed

[pinnacle]

so i received my belly pan from extracep and painted it up to match the rest of the bike i like the look of it as i have not seen many vmax up here in edmonton sporting them. i am curious though has anyone gone through the trouble of adding some mesh in the openings in the front to make them less see through and sportier looking and if so where did you get the mesh and install it......

I like it!

where did you get the mesh

I went to my local hardware store and got 1/8" metal screen for a screen door/windows then painted it. Worked out well. On my tail section there was open vents that look better filled.

Looks great.. Can you remove it easy for cleaning?

Re: belly pan installed with some addition to it

hey rebar thanx for the compliment as for removing it's on/off in less than 10 min just remove the 4 bolts and your off to the races....so i thought i would share some pics as to what i did to it to cover up the openings as i didn't like the look of the big holes......let me know what you guys think i just have to paint it up again once the epoxy sets in the back for a day.....you guys think it might cause alot of extra drag on the bike and affect it in anyway.....not that i go full throttle very often but i'm thinking just cruising around

Looks awesome - better than screen mesh

Pick that stuff up at local hardware store?

actually it is 20 gauge sheet metal that i drilled a lot of holes in with a drill press and shaped to fit the contour of the belly pan inside to avoid having any gaps around the outer edge.
