kinda lucky ........ could have been worse. How far apart are your blinkers ??
I'm thinking real lucky. Blinkers are about 200 apart but screwed to the underside of the tail which he didn't like either
just be honest you cant see the fuckers until your head is under the back of the bike
Looking at an 07 R1 tail for the 7. ( Complete subframe plastic sets ETC) but not sure on how it will look. Thinking it maybe longer than I like. Anyone had a close look at one before?
they are very long and look weird without the undertail pipes yella
Was think the same
I maybe have the option of a zx10 subby and plastic just still not sure
prob the better option IMO
Yeh just not sure. I like the tail to finish at about the rear axle. Neither of them will be short enough for me I dont think. Maybe keep on looking will have to thinksome more
maybe a newish cbr1000 tail mate
Have been looking but few and far between will have to make so more calls tomorrow. Almost have a BMW S1000rr tail but the fella changed his mind
mate go for a german style tail ,big Kev could get you, nothing radical like my old one ,nice n sublte ,dont use a 2nd hand tail theyve been done to death.

Thought you'd be smashing something from scratch mate ? Or at least some real serious cut n shut to make a plug for something just right.
Have looked at stuff like that but most of it is well over priced for what it is
I do like this but

I'm going to have the 07 tuono tail off mine (totally complete subby and all) that i'll be getting rid of very shortly (just as soon as i can get the CBR one mounted up)
hey Trav is you tony tail a 2x seater
sure is mate... would look damn perdy on a busa actually, it's nice and fat and has some good curves in it...
well if Ian doesnt want it ,let me know .
Cheers.
if you'r looking for short tails, look at smaller capacity bikes. I used a ninja 250 seat, and it was about 150mm shorter than the vfr one. what about a late model aprillia rs125?
I like the 250 ninja seat unit will need to look abit more
If you're gonna fit something, one tail I have been in love with for a while is the RVF tail by TYGA perfomance. Sexy as
what about the little mini yamaha R whatever they call it. the tail on that is pretty cool.
+ 1 on the RVF tail by TYGA
I like the the R125 tail they have one at the wrecker close to home gunna have a look over the weekend to see what its like in the flesh
That little yammy tail looks real nice. What about a Street/Speed Triple seat/tail? nice and short, you could use the factory pillion cowl, or make your own.
Its a nice unit..I used one on ex wifes bike
Went out on Friday night and run a 10.9 so happy as, also won $200 for a .002 reaction time great start to the weekend.
Now to the work

As most know this is how it looked
https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net...25979957_n.jpg
This is how it sits now needs about 100mm cut out of the top rails and the bottom modded to suit
jeez, the mounts nearly line up. It's gonna look good i reckon.
Yep not far off needed to take a little off the outside off the top rail to get it in bottom rail needs a liitle more work but not much.
gunna cut 100mm off the length and mod the bottom a little and all would be good. it is a little wider than i figured but it will work. hate typing on this phone
Another random pic

It doesn't look like much has changed but I had the original top mounts rewelded. I am not happy need to get Jules to make total new mounts and have them welded ( Need to get a TIG relying on others to do the welding is a pain)
I need to move it back a little so I can fit as it is a tight squeeze now but I don't want it to long so will work it out.
Kev will need to work on the seat to get it to fit an Pav will get it all for paint when done hopfully not tomuch longer. I will b refitting the old seat so I can go for a ride or race until complete.
Slapped it back together with the old tail and went racing. Managed a 10.9 @ 206kph 1/8 in 7.1 60ft in 1.9.
The fella in the other lane on a striped back Honda 4 with wheel bars, great bike to watch

60 in 1.7 1/8 in 7.1 1/4 in 11.3 @ 182kph
So if I can get my 60 down watch out :)
