So I took an intro to welding class at a local trade school last year then bougth a cheapy stick welder from wallmart. and was able to fab this up.
I used the side rails from a rack I had and cut them to fit then welded square stock to make the cross members and spacers near the seat. Saved myself $125 from buying one from suzuki.
I am by no means a master fabricator and my welds could use some work in the looks department but slap a coat of paint on it and you can't really tell.
