Looks a lot better. I still haven't got up the nerve to take a saw to the bike's frame. Maybe this winter...

Looks good, But I am not ready to chop either. I think I'm going to try the Shift-tech short tail first.

The reason?  To cause me pain and aggravation.  Take up space better suited to proper motorcycles.  We are lemon lawing that piece of shit as i type this.

I have to say (as I sit at my desk with my ass soaking wet cause I didn't bring my rain pants) that ugly tail tongue thingy would have been pretty useful on my bike this morning.  Right now I am hating I cut mine off.   

Uh, I mean, looks Great!

You are a complete and useless idiot.  How could you even consider wishing you still had your ugly tail tongue thingy on your monster.  Don't even come on this site and talk such stupid, senseless, tasteless garbage to us and expect us not to flog you like the pathetic loser that you are.  First off, you should take your monster and ri.................
Oh,... uh,.... it was me that wrote that.  In that case, never mind.

Hey, I suck as a machinist, painter, and fabricator.  I have horrible form on my bike.  I don't have much insight on the world, the economy, the weather, and life in general.  So I contribute the only way that I can.

Back on topic, what are your signals mounted to?

With that being said, lets have a reality check for all of those new guys with big ideas and a "can do" attitude.  Hacksaw to motorcycle frame can get ugly.  Measure twice, cut once.  It's a lot easier to take off then it is to put back on.
