it was the one thing that stopped me from doing the single seat swap on mine - did it on the really old fz600 though as it had a removable subframe so i just bought a spare off ebay and sliced that up and added a few connectors so i could swap between the two as and when i needed two seats - hmm theres an idea - plug weld some bolt on points so you have the worlds first removable subframe fzs
Hey Disorderlypunk
Hows the youtube channel?
I was commenting on a lot of your early videos, but didn't want to appear to be spamming your channel, so stopped.
Yes this is the "limitation" of these early fazers, no separate rear subframe. 1 big welded frame - which does look clean though.
"worlds first removable subframe fzs" - would be a FOC-U first too.
I took my bike infact to a custom motorcycle fabricator, who commented it would ruin a perfectly decent bike, cutting off the seat tubing to weld on a new rear end. Plus he'd not be able to match the paint either, so might be a noticeable colour difference.
If I was ever to go down that path, will put up a build progress thread here.
