I mounted the tailight(jp cycles) and license plate on the upper left rear shock mount.I originally mounted the light under the reaer seat( as in the pic), but that didnt workout so I moved over to the right above the license plate. I used some celing tile struts made for lights (or anything else that needs support). Smashed them flat, then cut them to fit with tin snips, drilled holes , lower part mounted to the lower shock mounts, and upper to the fender using the existing threaded bolt holes . I used the rear section of the existing fender, the pivoting section. I welded tabs on to the swing arm and mounted some flat bar that is offset to reach inward toward fender. these connected to bolts that I passed through the old mounts that the pivot pin went through. I turned out pretty rigid.Pics are worth a 1000 words. the arrows point to where it mounts.
