okay i got a question might sound a bit dumb but im not sure which way it is suppose to go. My bike goes into the shop for a few mods and i am going to have them put it on with my other mods, Question is the vertical plate bracket that hooks up to the swing arm is the plate section suppose to be on the side where it sticks out more or is it suppose to be on the side where it kinda goes in closer to the tire. one the left side it goes in closer to my tire and if i put it on the right side it goes away from my tire. looking at it from the back. this is a pic of the part from the site http://nycparts.com/index.asp?PageAc...amp;ProdID=785any pics would we helpful thanks

 

The chain side...

 

thanks

 

check out my intro thread ....I did a vertical on my 1000 and it turned out really nice...just need to powder coat the bracket now and tidy up the wires

 

the photos of my bike are on page 3 or 4 of my intro thread

 

I would worry about the plate becoming a knife edge in a tumble. I can see why people like them but they aren't for me at all.

 

Also, stay out of CT with a vertical plate, they are illegal in this state and I have had friends pulled over and ticketed for "Improper Marker"

 

same in MN those ones are illegal. less you get the right cop who jus says get it fixd, that happend to me. just make sure u check ur state law first.

jfunk do you know why they are illegal? is it beacuse the cops think there isnt light on them?

 

theyre illegal because they cant be read from the car and are to low.

 

STAYout of Florida with it as well...law just passee making it illegal :-(

jus FYI...
