GSXR SRAD Tail Swap
The thread can be found here but the picture links are broken: http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=27240.0
Bear in mind the SRAD seat unit is from a very large bike and looks very large on the gs. :d
For this mod the complete GSXR SRAD subframe was used (although it can be acheived by modifying the gs's subframe) This step by step was done using the SRAD aluminum subframe.
- Step 1 Remove all the fairing and electrical gear out of the way
- Step 2 Remove gs under tray
- Step 3 (The fun part) out with precision tool number 1 and cut that gs sub frame away. At the top it ended up I cut 50mm
from the center of the tank mounting bolts and at the bottom 230mm from the engine side of the frame (it was the only place I could get a consistant measurement from)
- Step 4 Drill the 4 10mm mounting holes
- Step 5 Mount srad subframe
- Step 6 Was mount under tray and the rear half of the sub frame.
- Step 7 Mount rear brake light and reroute all electrics,
- Step 8 Cut a slot in the under side of the seat pad plastic so the fat gs battery would fit
- Step 9 Paint the fairings and cowl
and finally
- Step 10 Put the seat fairings ect on the bike
