On the Tail Chop fence, Chopped now with ISSUES

So i have been looking into the whole tail chop thing. I think it looks really cool and especially like the Competition Werkes kit. I have come across some findings of it not fitting the
2008
M695, and that is what i have.
I have the DP gel seat and plan to put MOTRAX Micro Oval Turn Signals on as well.
So will this CW kit work for me or am I staying on this fence?
Thanks in advance.

it fit on my old 620...........and i dont think there was any change to the frame when the 695 came out.
so unless comp. works changed their design (possible i suppose) it should fit just fine.

Tail chop looks a MILLION times better!!!!! I have a '08 M695 and I used the Competition Werkes kit on mine. Fit perfect. Everything is very very easy plug and play. Go to Indysuperbike.com I dont think they list the kit on their site but can get it with no problem.

I sat on the fence for about 6 months after getting my Kit, but now it is done, I am happy with the result, The only downside, and it's a minor one, when riding in the rain, I get more dirt and grime flicked up on the back of the bike and on me, but, that's my only issue, but It's only a minor problem in the overall scheme of things.
Looks much better.
PS: I have posted a How To: Tail chop, in the Tutorials section, have a look, does not take long and is quite easy to do.

I you or a buddy has the tools, skip the kit and fab your own brackets. Save the $100 for something else.

+2 for Jeff @ Monsterparts.com. Great service and Comp Werkes kit is awesome!!!
Pompetta's homemade chop has held up nicely for a number of years too!!!
Either way, chop it

don't do it,
keep it stock, the tail chop is really overated, i don't think it keeps the lines clean, always looks like something is missing.

I am a chopped fan, had my kit for a few weeks before I took the plunge one morning.
Just about to swap to a newer Monster and it will get chopped as well.
