Hey guys, I’m new to the forum. I picked up a 2020 GT and loving this thing. But I really dislike the way the rear of the bike looked with the back rest and trying to find the filler plates. I took a leap of faith and decided to cut it off with my grinder and see if it was possible to sand it and polish it.. It was actually pretty easy to do and save myself a couple hundred bucks.
 
Nice job. what would you have done if you found a void in the casting after you ground it off. ha ha. Kidding, looks good. I made some fillers with some thin carbon fiber I had. I love looking at guys DIY projects.
