:ukm:

[Roberto]

[sjr999r]

Hopefully.....ducati factory will chop the end off........or make it more pleaseing to the eye,next year or the year after,heres hoping:flag:

[Mr C]

Good work and a wise decission

[bod]

The tail is there for a reason,where else do you put your fags ,wallet,sunglasses,etc when stoping with the bike?

Not to mention the cup of tea or beer when your working on it in the garage :chuckle: :chuckle:

Still, looks like nice job you've done Roberto i bet the first cut was a scarry moment :eek:

[eonan]

A sh*te for shore eyes! Absolutely beautiful mate :thumbsup:

Now how about getting rid of those little fairy lights and go for a nice CA integrated tail light unit...make those lines even cleaner :pedro:

[Manda]

That looks wicked. I have just received my Tail Chop Kit from Spareshack with clear lens & LED insert indicators. Just gotta grow some balls before being let loose on my S4R arse end with a hacksaw! :cry:

[SazzaG]

Good on you Manda. After all, it is compulsory for all Sussexites to have a tail chop....

[Manda]

Thank god for Robertos pics otherwise i would know where to start as ya get no destructions with the kit.

[JMo]

Thank god for Robertos pics otherwise i would know where to start as ya get no destructions with the kit.

Should have bought one of mine then... ahem x

I'd be intersted in seeing what this kit from SS looks like - I always thought they were for the earlier bikes, to basically mount the number plate?

Let me know if you have any problems, you're not a million miles away from me...

Hee hee - Scotty is one of the very few people who chopped his bike, then put it back... of course he knows in his heart of hearts that it looked far better chopped, but cannot bare the humiliation to admit it and get the hacksaw out again...

Erm, the same place they were when you were riding it?!

[Roberto]

btw.. I placed the same ish, thread on the monster forum accross the pond, some admin has popped my thread into there Tail Chop FAQ...

Could be a business opportuntie for u there JMO...

I'll talk to u about comission:cool: ;)

[Chaos Inc.]

All hail the mighty saw.

[johndark]

Really nice job,Roberto! To get rid of the number plate light i had the toolroom at work machine a window in the lower surface(can i say bottom?) :toilet: of the rear lens,then replaced it with perspex,hey presto, 1 light.LED's in the end of the frame tubes,too(have i said that before?)Sorry,that passes for excitement here:chuckle: That S4RS hasn't made me jealous,by the way,no sirrreee,not one bit,not at all,heavens no..............:hissy:

[Roberto]

good luck with the chop Manda I'm sure it will be fine :)

nice tailight idea johndark :), not so sure about the chav tooo fast tooo furious neon tho (tubes) ;) u should pop some pics up.

[masterofthemoon]

btw..to do that to a spanking S4RS takes some bottle and confidence..i'm sh!tting it with my 1994 S4R..!!:dunce:

[markus]

Thank God for the chop!!!!!!!!, never a moments regret for me and Roberto, it looks awesome.

Now Stormie - take note, chop that brand new s4rs of yours.....you know you really want to, come on roberto's balls were big enough - ha ha
Only joking stormie - i know you love her beauty just the way it is...........just keep me and fergi (yep i named my hacksaw) away from it.

[JMo]
