Buy you a fender,mock it to fit the bike and chop,cut and install everything around it.I personally wouldn`t be seen riding that bike that way.The guy that did it must have been a major jackwagon.Oh,BTY,FUCKOFFOLDTIMENOOBERANDWELCOMEBACK.

Fuck the seat...take a chainsaw to it and cut the back end right off, then throw some duct tape on it! It can't look any worse than it already does!!!

IMO, you should track down the old owner and kick him square in the dick, and let him know he was / is a dumbass.

But good thing is, you got a bike outta the deal that can be hooked up and look sweet.

Well,
Thanks. I should actually start cutting tomorrow. Then gotta sell the Harley Softtail seat that came on it to get a proper seat....

Lower the rear-end for sure. Looks like a stripped down mad max bike to me.:stunned:

Congrats on a great bike!
I've basically got the same one, only a '86 model.
Here you can see what I did to mine, might give you some inspiration on what to do (or not to do) :

uuummmmm, even at free that would be a hard one to take home during the day. Keep the garage door closed until you can get that fucking seat thing off.

Ummm... did a great job on the fender, but what's up with the seat? Is that a stock Honda seat with an extra layer? I've gotta admit, I don't get the seat.

Excellent job fixing that jackwagon's godaweful rear end though. Like it never even happened.

Thanks! I did what I could :)
Seat was all I could do. Its from the same seat "Family" the idiot @ Honda told me so I spent a a$$ load of cash to find one.. This is what I got. Its way comfy though.... But its for sale so I dont care either way...
