Title: Need some tail chop pics
Post by: factorPlayer on June 24, 2010, 01:41:08 AM
So I am finally getting the chop done and my buddy doing the job (I don't have a garage) asked for a picture to go by, though we've looked at the bike together and are on the same page on where to chop the frame that would probably help a bit.  Going to replace the stock with an integrated tail light and lose the beer tray altogether.

Anybody got some pics of some nice tail for me? Thanks.

just did this two weeks ago, and it was 6 1/2" from the tip of the frame.

The silver parts are for additional turn indicators if I plan to go back to Germany one day.

Most kits will allow you to cut all the way up to the lock bracket on the right side (except for the TPO kit).

I used a pipe cutter, so I couldn't get it all off.

I have a black billet alum license plate bracket I'd sell for $40 + shipping. I paid $75 for it and never used it. It was posted here a while back or email me for photos.
