Default Do the 97's have under tails?

Stupid question but when I bought my bike it was missing the whole tail section. I just bought a one piece off ebay and have seen 2 different under tail sections. Do they come from the factory with under tail sections?

Thank you,
Josh

Pics would be appreciated too

No, they do not have an undertail per se, they come stock with a tray that runs under the rear portion of the seat to the back making the Fender.

Many people trim this piece down (Like the one in the ebay add I guess) and some even buy that part that chowda is talkin about. His part cleans up the tail real nice!

I actually have an aftermarket fiberglass undertail that I bought and never put on.. unpainted, untouched. I'm going a different route and would be willing to let it go for $90 + shipping. Got it for ~$125 new. PM me if you want pics or want to talk further..

Do it. I have one on my bike and it looks really nice. Way better than stock.

i purchased the undertail in the ebay auction for my 98 and I can't for the life of me figure out how to install it. What parts do I need to remove to install this thing? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

scratch that, I figured it out. You need to cut quite a bit of the stock undertail to get the ebay thing to fit.
