Default Grab Bar Alternatives

Hey all,

I want to remove the grab bar on my F4i. I was wondering if there was something I could put in its' place to keep a nice clean look to my back side.

Lot's of guys use stickers or matching vinyl. But lots of guys use it to move their bike around the garage

I have discovered that I'd rather have the space for strapping stuff to the back.

i dont think they make block offs for the grab bar so your best bet is plugging/filling the holes with some epoxy or something maybe and repainting. or you can also take your handle and make your own block offs via...

buy a handle off ebay for cheap and use that to make them so you can just take them off whenever you want to put the bar back on then.

That's a plan. But I have no tools to make the deletes.
