hey otello this is what you do. I believe I am getting a full refund from indysuperbikes. Just call them or whoever you bought it from and explain what is happening. It will not fit etc etc. Just be honest with them and they will help you. the guys at indysuperbikes were real nice to me. made me call Lockhart but they are taking care of everything else since it really wasnt our fault. They are really fair. they will not charge you for shipping or restocking cuz this is a manufacturers problem.

on the label and website description it says that it would fit a 95-98 CBR 600 F3. Well I have a 97 CBR 600 F3 and it will not work. It doesnt even look like the clear oem stock one I have. the holes are crooked and off.

Bottom line it dont fit

The bike is doing great, running it o work every day. The only thing is that I'm having a hell of a time trying to get a bigger tire in the back. I'm running with a 140-70-17 but I'm going to try to run 150-60-17.Wed I'm buying the tire and I'm prayint to God it'll fit.hahah
You got some pics of your bike? done or not send them. I always like to see other bikes.

Whats up man! Actually my tail mods has been done alot on this forum. Its off of a 03 cbr 600rr, its actually pretty easy if you have the time and if you know how to weld support bars. As matter of fact thats where I got my idea.
Let me know if you have any more questions, Ill be happy to help. give me your email and I'll send pics of the mod being done.

two questions for you.

1. where did you find that tail? it's sick

2. when you got rid of the passenger pegs how did you anchor the pipe to the bike?

Get a shorter windscreen preferably red or smoked color. I would change the color of the wheels as well. I have to Hurricanes one of which I am restoring myself.
