I just bought a race tail for my cbr 600 f3 from ebay for around 200. The only problem is i have no idea how to install it because it did not come with any tabs. How the hell do I mount this tail with no tabs. I need some help..

if yours is like mine,it didnt come with any mounting points either.the only thing i did was drill out the hole for the quarter turn screw things and i let the ass end lay on top of the passenger area of the seat.this was on the bike when i got it,and it is a piece of crap.if i had bought it,i would have sent it back to the manufacturer.

Yeah I didnt think of that. Or you cut out the part of your old fairing that have the tabs and then epoxy them inside your new one. Not sure how well that would work.

Yeah the ebay one is the cheetah race tail... It has no tabs i''ma try to take of the old tabs and epoxy them on. I advise you if you do buy a tail from ebay DO NOT BUY IT FROM IMPACT PARTZ they took 32 days to send my race tail and their ass holes.

That is cool. I hope that works out for you. If it does let us know cuz my back fairing is broken and needs to be replaced. I looked at the link you sent and it has the tabs in the pic.

So what you guys are saying the stock tail is the way to go? Or is there a good after market?
