      i think one of the best features of the 80
      was the tail light behind the seat with the blinkers
      attached to the side of the frame, it makes the rear end
      look so much nicer.
      i wish my sport was set up like that, i can understand
      y u would want it put back that way.

        I have to decide which seat I'm going to use first, then that will somewhat dictate what I do with the taillight. The PO butchered up the foam in the SG seat, but I've got a slightly better '81H seat (no cutout for the light) that I may use. I may just install the seat/fender/taillight off the H...
