All undertails require the excess plastic to be cut off.
You will also have to cut and splice your brake and turn signals.
The compartment lock will have to be relocated, requiring you to relocate where the lock and cable is fastened on the inside.
The undertail should come with brackets to mount your license plate. You will have to drill holes for the brackets. I would also suggest getting an LED light that acts as a license plate bolt to illuminate your license. This will keep you legal. Mount your license plate with it angled toward you (standing behind the bike, look it the rear end). If you mount it angled away from you, it will get bent when you bikes suspension compresses.
The undertail doesn't bolt to the body work, it uses plastic tabs to secure it to the plastic tail section. It doesn't feel very secure, but they don't move.
Keep in mind that you will lose a lot of visibility on your turn signals. I haven't seen an undertail with LED's that are bright enough to be usefull (especially durning daytime). My undertail included.

RE: looking for undertail need help
That is exactly what I am looking for also. This style in "Winning Red"..... I talked to HotBodies and they said due to the lack of sales of this specific style of undertail they choose to discontinue it... I really would like to retain the look of the stock tail-lamp when I decided to go with an undertail conversion. Anyone else know of any others out there similar to this particular one?
Thanks,
