First ride after a rain with a passenger and boy did she get soaked!  Ooops.  She asked me why I chopped the tail and I told her I didn't buy the bike to carry passengers......

It's like those tags they put on your mattress that say "DO NOT REMOVE"  FU, I bought this thing, I'm going to remove what I want! Grin

Those tags say Not to be removed, except by the consumer...

With a full tail chop, you'll get the rooster tail fling on you too, not just a passenger - and if you have to ride through some muddy puddles.. it makes a spectacular mess.. but that's a different story.

Doesn't help much, but still looks good, so do it anyway  waytogo

Nekkidchic, look at Arc de Duc's bike half way down - behind the seat cowl, that's a beer tray.

grab two beers and stand around your bike with a friend. then feel like you need to take something apart to show him how awesome you are

look for a place to sit your beer so your hands are free.

you will immediately find the so called "beer tray" works like a charm even on a sidestand. convinced my friend who leaves his bike in my garage to leave his tail intact for just this reason  Grin (you didnt think id leave mine on did you?)

Except that she rides a 696, so her bike didn't come with one.
