Anyone clean up their tail section? - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

Bigs · 04-17-2008, 01:13 PM

Looking to clean up the tail section around the license plate. Want to get some ideas and products anyone used to get rid of the bulky black bracket used on the bikes that hold the license plate and the side reflector pads. Looking for something plain and simple that will house the plate, inspection sticker, and conceal the brake wires. Did a search in this forum, but found nothing.

Very nice. yeah, I only searched the V-Star forum at first. Did some more searching on the others and found a few ideas. Looks like most used the side mount plates.

Yep. The side mounting for plates is the way to go if you want to do some serious tail clean up.
