Under tail kit installed

Ok, got a kit off of ebay and I did not have to cut the new peice but I did have to cut parts off of the bike to make it fit. That was not hard, the hard part was trying to get the lock onto it (which I failed at doing). The hole is too big and the peice is too thin for the stock set to work. I am going to take it to a shop and maybe they can fabricate something to work. Anyway, here is a pic and a link to the video.

Looks great I really like the looks of that one.
What company makes that?

I dont know which company makes it as it did not have a logo on the box or the directions but here is the link. eBay Motors: HONDA RVT RC 51 RC51 2001 2006 UNDERTAIL SILVER #14A (item 370063962217 end time Jul-03-08 06:24:32 PDT)

Super hot looking. I like how it is so different from the usual dual light set ups available from Hot Bodies and the like.

Re: Under tail kit installed

It definitely worked. I have the hot bodies and the lights suxor big time. I am probably going to order the replacement lights from CBR400RR (Scotts Motorcycle Service in Cali) which will make it much safer. I bet you dont have this problem, but mine are not bright enough in the day light.

Re: Under tail kit installed

Mine are bright but I really would like them brighter. I am eventually going to look into getting brighter LEDs. Should be easy to replace but I am going to get it done by the pro's. Right now they are fine, I might get it done next year though.
