Now fitted my "modified" rear fender which will look OK until I can afford a new exhaust system for the bike!

Just used a dremel to remove most of the unsightly plastic, removed the original licence plate light and replaced it with a small LED unit (Motrax).

Then replaced stock indicators with LED arrows (fitted with resistors initially but now under the control of a new relay).

Looks OK from the back - bit rough around the edges but not too bad if you don't look too hard.

Didn't cost me anything apart from the plate light and I already had the LED indicators from a previous bike.

Just another "solution" to the hideous snow-shovel that these come fitted with.

This is a cut down I did literally. I have not bought anything yet. All this takes is a little time and patience trying to undo what Honda has done back there. I plan on making my own plate mount with light. It will be tight. I'll post when done.

Sorry, I'm still getting the hang of all this.
