Has anyone on here removed the rear shock adjuster bracket?, i take it, it won't affect the frame at all as far as strength or anything?

Is kind of in the way and just wanted to check before i cut the welds :scratch_one-s_head:

I don't think it would effect the frame but it is doing no harm. I would just clean it up and paint it. You might find those bolt holes handy sometime.



Other idea is make a box to bolt to it for storage ? Or a plate for relays etc..

Yah chopped mine. One of the many things I've done that have reduced the weight of my bike. And clean it up a little. Since it's so under powered. It's @ least 45lbs lighter than stock.

Unipods and shorter dog bones are the next two jobs  :good2:

This is it so far, genesis front and rear, remus 4into 1, blue spots, new saddle, hagon shock

eventually it's unipods, cbr mirrors, dog bones, larger oil cooler and eventually a respray
