Attaching a vintage TZ250 tail-section to a 1970's era RD400 requires some ingenuity! My solution began with an old sheet aluminum street sign (purchased, not stolen). Lots of measurements, cutting and some grinding..... Voila, my "Ghetto All-Aluminum Sub-Frame".
The sub-frame eliminates any flex in the fiberglass and allows me to securely attach the tail-section. The battery pack will be tucked away inside the tail-section and should allow me to trim several pounds off the bike. Deutz fasteners will secure the tail-section in place and allow quick access to the battery pack and electronics underneath.
Getting closer....
