If I install one on my bike will I lose the rear tie down points (90 degree brackets, like for a bungee strap to secure something to the rear seat) under the tail section? The front "pegs" are up by the front of the rear seat on top. These area long the bottom in the back.

 

what bike? is this the banana seater?

you can still use the license plate bracket and the pass. pegs as mounting points.

 

No banana seat, dual seat (it's an '02). The foot pegs end up being far down and the original tie downs are placed in a good spot.
So you lose the originals then?

 

yea with the FE, the tabs are gone.
i use the frankenstein bolts and the bottom 2 holes of the license plate frame...or you can use the brackets that the license plate frame bolts to.

 

Thanks Tahoe. I may have to rethink this then.

 

i was really upset when i did this, i was more conserned about appearance at the time, now that i am becoming more "practicle" i miss the fender for exactly this issue mentioned in this post.

 

if you use the bungie cargo net...there really is no issue. what are you guys currently using?

 

I use the bungee net too and was wondering what if anything would replace the factory rear tabs. From you picture it looks like the fender eliminator has some type of tabs right in front of the license plate near where the factory tabs are/were located.

 

well..i use the frankenstein bolts and the license fram bracket or the rear blinker bracket which comes with the CW FE kit and i have no problems.

that was just a picture i used to show the cargo net. you WILL be fine! just gonna have to trust me on this!

 

Looks like I will have to trust you on this as you said. The frankenstein bolts up top are solid and the rear oem tabs underneath are better on the F4i than the 1000RR and what I have seen on Suzukis and Buells as well. If the CW tail has what you describe and what is picturedI'll have to go over to indysuperbikes and pick one up when my clear alternatives light comes in on Monday. Thanks. Got any more pics, just to satisfy me even more?
