Title: S2R 800 (07) Tail TIDY -- *NOT* Chop?? Post by: jhsS2R on March 08, 2011, 08:45:23 PM Hi all, looking for advice on getting rid of the "ugly black hanging thing" that my plate and the plate light hang on... Note, I am specifically NOT LOOKING TO CHOP THE TAIL. I am leaving the "beer tray" in place. From what I can tell, it should be a relatively straightforward 4-bolt issue to unscrew the stock plastic ugly thing, but I am not sure what to replace it with.
Someone recommended this Rizoma, but seems expensive and bulky to me, not sure how much visual difference it will make?? http://www.rizoma.com/Prodotti/zoom.cfm?IMG=http://www.rizoma.com/IMG/Prodotti/Big/KitPortaTarga.jpg (http://www.rizoma.com/Prodotti/zoom.cfm?IMG=http://www.rizoma.com/IMG/Prodotti/Big/KitPortaTarga.jpg) http://www.rizoma.com/Prodotti/ProdottiUniversal.cfm?ID_categoria=11&IDSez=1 (http://www.rizoma.com/Prodotti/ProdottiUniversal.cfm?ID_categoria=11&IDSez=1) This place appears to carry a cheap tidy solution for this bike, but you lose the light, which I think might get me pulled over, no? http://www.ducatimonstertailchop.com/ (http://www.ducatimonstertailchop.com/) Sorry for asking about a topic about which there seem to be many threads, but I'm hoping someone can save me a LOT of searching time and point me in the right direction (spent a bit of time searching already but not sure I found what I'm looking for). Thank you. Title: Re: S2R 800 (07) Tail TIDY -- *NOT* Chop?? Post by: stopintime on March 09, 2011, 12:10:35 AM The Rizoma piece doesn't exclude the upper plastic.
