I felt uncomfortable cutting the frame, so here's what I went with. --No chop CF Tail Unit. (Monster Parts) --Clear Alternatives LED tail Light. --LightTech LED turn Signals. --Custom Dynamics LED lighted plate frame. I modified the aluminum bracket on the tail unit to eliminate the tag-light and mount the plate a bit higher.     |

Welcome to the "fans of no tail chop" club. Looks like we have another CF addict. Psssttt, I have a DP CF clutch cover for sale, to go with your cans/tail/belt covers.  |

Welcome to the "fans of no tail chop" club. Looks like we have another CF addict. Psssttt, I have a DP CF clutch cover for sale, to go with your cans/tail/belt covers. My wife says "absolutely not!" on the clutch cover...but tell me more. Open? Closed? Pics maybe? I'm a little concerned about the lack of protection for the clutch if you go down with a CF cover, but I could be persuaded to go CF. Just don't tell my wife!!  |

Sorry, I'm glad you like it, but chopped is the way it looks best IMO. Yes Tom, your bike looks good as a package, but would look better, again IMO, with a chop...

Yeah, I had one of those for about a year. Then I chopped! Out of curiosity, how many tail chop pieces do you have mounted on your garage wall? |
