the rear blinkers have plugs about 6" back in the undertail, just unplug them.You may way to put a peice of tape around the end for moisture reasons but they should be fine.Your fronts will blink really fast, and it may even be possible it changes the resistance so much they dont work at all, I never tried unplugging them both. Competition werkes has a nice light setup with their LTD undertail kitssee if they sell it separate. Sinch to install.

exactly.. these undertail kits are usually overpriced and you can usually do something custom for about 10-20 bucks

God I wish I would have heeded that advice the first time I took my CBR apart. After all the **** I installed, putting the damn bike back together was the most challenging "mod" I did.
