Well i finally got my cnc plasma cutter up and running and ive been cutting away. today's project was to get rid of the rear sets on my 1100 Katana. I will never ride two-up so i have no use for the rear pegs and they are in bad shape anyway.


i started by removing the old ones and making a drawing in autocad of what i wanted. I then loaded it into the machine and cut it out of 1/4" plate

now the pipe is about 1.5" offset from the rear set mount... so i had to bend it... a little heat and an adjustable wrench and a hammer and we have this...
