It was Cookie1 on the DML, not sure if he/she ( ???) made it over.

My vote is no chop.  I've been paying for it ever since I did it.  I put on about 30,000km a season and my gf wants to kill me when she's on the back.  I even built a makeshift fender that attaches to the license plate.

I also couldn't attach my Givi bags because of the tailchop.

My opinion, it's a bad idea.

Why? I don't understand why your gf wants to kill you.

Go for it dude. It only taakes a couple of seconds with the cutting wheel.. I've put on about 4k miles on the bike since I did it (4 mosths ago) and don't regret it at all... 

Also, I did not fell any noticeable getting wet difference when riding in the rain... And I do that ALOT!
