I think it is home made. Doesn't look hard to make though.

Tools, if you wanted to get something like that made, where would you go (assuming you didn't have the welding tools/skills to do it yourself)?

I definitely don't, and getting welding stuff will probably have to wait until my next house as I'm really short on space with my small 1 car garage townhouse as it is.

Any welding/fab shop should be able to make something like that up. I myself know of several small welding shops around here that could do it.

Thanks allot guys! I will see if I can make it mysel and if not will look about getting it fabricated. I just really like how much cleaner it looks, allot nicer than the stock one in my opinion. and kinda adds some style to back end of the bike, feel like the back ussually looks kind of plain in comparison to all the stuff going on with the engine and forks ect up front
