To get the bike registered, all the lights need to be EC
approved, so I bought the cheapest taillight with such an approval.
I should have known better, because it turned out that there
was no way to mount it on the fender, because the 3 mounting
holes were at the wrong angle. Also the fender is very close
to the tire... I fabbed up a little mounting bracket from scrap
iron and welded that to the fender, now there are no bolts sticking
through. Painted the fender and various brackets with rattlecan
primer and put the rearend back together. Next jobs: chainguard,
front blinkers and battery box.
