Hello from Japan! I'm also doing a fenderless custom rebel, but I was very surprised by the exact same method! I came up with this method last month and customized it, but the video of the poster was 4 years ago! That's excellent! I should have watched this video sooner!

dude your bike is the reason im looking into getting one, love the look of this thing.

Right! It just looks cool, and lots you can do to it, def not the fastest but its got a nice design and enough power for most people plus a modern engine so I dont have to fuck with carbs and all that,

Looks good but I'm guessing this won't be a rainy day bike, back spray time.

What’s the widest rear tire you can fit on these bikes with the rear fender off?

What did you end up doing for the plate?

Very clean mod, do you know where I can get the wiring harness on its own so that I don't have to cut the one that comes with the fender? I've seen several, just don't know if I need to get a specific one for the rebel.

[EDIT/Recomment: Sorry this is the video I meant to send this comment to, and not the your plate lights video] Hello again, would love to maybe do this to my future rebel. Although I don't have any experience to wiring and soldering. Do have a video where you actually solder the tail lights. Or possibly a detailed video of you soldering the plate lates? I got a bit confuised when you breifly mentioned what wires to use when adding the plate lights lol. If not, do you recommend a "plug and play" product that comes close to your DIY project?

Ooh baby this is something I might do

So I'm concerned about something o.o.... After doing this modification, I notice a little more heat from the rectifier under the seat. Not sure if that's normal due to less load from the LED lights VS the original lights, or if the position of the new brackets changed the position of the rectifier, causing the heat to be more noticeable or what. What is too hot? For example, after riding for maybe 5+ minutes i notice some warmth IN MAH BUTT. Not super hot, seems to stay the same temp, doesn't get hotter, but many concerns... many... concerns...

Watched this to figure out whether the rear fender is part of the frame, because German TÜV is a b*tch, hence, mods on this usually are pain in the a$$, but thanks for clearing this out. Might actually start this (with the exact same fender you denied btw). Anyway, nice job!
