Title: Tail chop and rizomas - updated with pics after front install and spacers
Post by: jasaretta on September 13, 2009, 03:19:29 AM
Happy with my Sunday's work....front indicators next weekend.

Sorry for the crappy pic.

Anyone else have the problem of the seat cowl hitting the turn signals??

I'm not seeing a pic.   ???


Can you elongate the holes in your brackets and move the signals down?

Ditto on the no pic.

And yes, my signals hit the cowl as well.  I'm just letting them be, but PJ's Parts sells these extensions:  http://www.pjsparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=59&products_id=479 (http://www.pjsparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=59&products_id=479)

Need pics here. Which tail chop kit did you use? Which Rizoma indicators are used? I'm trying to gather enough information and nerve to do the same thing.

I used the competitonwerkes kit. It's the second bike I have used it on and it is very good. Especially for someone like me who is about as handy as tits on a bull.

The indicators are the Rizoma zeros. Got them from Pjsparts - great service.

Take the hacksaw - measure, measure then cut - you will love it!

nice ass  [evil] 

I'd use the extenders mentioned above to get the indicators to clear the cowl. 

Nice job!

Thanks for the info. So tempting to do. I might have to cave and buy the CW tail-chop kit...very soon.

Finally got to do the front and also install the extenders. Not sure that I did a great job but I like them  ;D

And sorry for the crappy pics.

Any issues with the license plate hitting the rear tire on big bumps?

Excellent! The tail comes off this weekend. I received my CW chop kit yesterday! Looking forward to it.
