The Orange Project rearsets

In order to make some room for the new exhaust, I decided to discard the old footpeg supports and build two proper ones. 
I wanted to make it in two pieces to easly adjust the footpeg position if needed.

Starting as usual from a cardboard model,


then cutting, shaping and piercing some aluminium...

I have to change all the bolts to the frame because they now have the wrong length, but they are in non-metric size so it will require another couple of hours. I'll also make the recesses in the plate for the bolts heads for a flush finish.
