The tail on the FZ is pretty bulky compared to other bikes. Partially due to the under seat exhaust, which I love. This simple mod lets some more daylight through the back, and lets you see the shock. Seeing the shock will be nice once I upgrade. That yellow Ohlins will be so nice once I get the money.

I used some shop shears to cut off the smaller of the two pieces. Then did the same with the thicker portion leaving a small tab in the flat side. Use a torch(or whatever) to heat the plastic so you can fold it and make a seam. Then use some glue to tack down the other two sides. Only takes about an hour.
