Default fender eliminater

I would like to hear some pros and cons of a fender eliminator kit for a 06 f4i.
Thanks.

there are no negative sides that I can see. firstly, you DRASTICALLY improve looks, second, that gigantic airbrake is gone, third you probably get a little better mpg from the bike because of reason two. go for it.

To elaborate on his question a little further;

Does anyone have any feedback on the HotBodies F.E. Kit?

Hotbodies doesn't make a Fender Eliminator, they make an undertail. I have their undertail, and I'm happy with it. I don't like LED's, but they all have them.

Undertail: Usually ABS plastic, replaces the underside and provides a clean race look, painted to match, more expensive.

Fender Eliminator: Usually a flat piece of metal (sometimes painted black, sometimes not), doesn't replace the underside, less expensive.

Ahhh...My Mistake. See I assumed because it eliminates the fender, that it would be refered to as a fender eliminator, my bad. Anyway that undertail i want to get. It say's it comes painted, in my case yellow. Does it really match stock colors? Also, it say's there is a plate mount, is it adaquate?

My silver undertail is a good paint match.

beware as far as I know that kit is not for an 06 model. Hotbodies tails are made for the double seat f4is not the new ones. Rumble has one but i have been told they don't fit right and you have to do a lot moding to get it on. Just what I hear no personal experience.
