First of all I wanted to get rid of the footpegs in the rear.

 

[Dzjiepie]

I started with heating the bolts with a soldering gun, and removed the bolts.
I screwed in new bolts from the inside and put on "headbolts".

 

[Dzjiepie]

This is how it looks now.

 

[Dzjiepie]

The bolts on the right side I also heated with the soldering gun.
When I tried to loosen the bolts I destroyed both of them.
So I had to drill the heads of the bolt.

 

[Dzjiepie]

The breakfluidreservoir I relocated to the front.
I used one thick wacher and some thin one's to create some space so the reservoir doesn't touch the bike.
It made no changes to the breakhoses.

The place where Yamaha-san put the horn was in my opion not the best place, so .........

 

[Dzjiepie]

Took the horn of.

 

[Dzjiepie]

And put it behind the left "airintake".

 

[Dzjiepie]

Up untill now I have 330km on the ODO. Not 1 km in dry conditions, and in cold weather.
To keep my hands out of the wind, I bought .......

 

[Dzjiepie]

All bolts, spacers etc are included,

 

[Dzjiepie]

This is the way it should be mounted.

 

[Dzjiepie]

And this is the result.
This took me 15 minutes.
