I like the blacked out look. Your undertail looks good too.

Im thinking of installing the led tail light then cutting off the rear fender and modify/install a plate bracket and light where I cut the fender from the undertail. Cheap and simple.

Which do you guys think is brighter and more noticeable, the led tail lights with intigrated turn signals or the undertail like the one on nafstap's bike? I live in Ithaca, we have two colleges and a lot of foreign people here. I dont want to get rear ended by a dumb cager whos not paying attention.

i have a friend who cut it off and it looks perfect, if you're looking to cut costs thats the way to go, and it looks pretty good.

i have the hotbodies undertail i dont know if you'll like it but everyone has their own tastes...

I chose my undertail for the visibility and also because I have to meet certain requirements for the base safety inspection.
