Got a question on putting an XB-R tail section on an XB-S guys... Wife likes/dislikes the chopped off tail look like Odie has, but when viewing bike in garage with the wife, I too started to note some dislikes with the look in particular, not as a whole. But I am curious, has anyone ever put (I know the answer is yes, there are pics here some where just cant find them right now) Of a 12S with a R tail section. If there are, please slap me in the right direction so we may compare side be side with the pics of Odie's tail mods. Odie, I am in NO WAY disliking your style by any means, just looking for some other ideas before making the cut, so to speak!! AND GUYS, is there anything else out there that someone somewhere makes in reguards to tail sections, still new at this XB stuff!! thanks ahead of times guys!! Tired, rode hard husband Bruce |

An S to R front end is easier. You don't have to relocate all the electronics like you would going from R to S. S underseat electronics. R fairing electronics. (Message edited by glitch on September 16, 2004) |

when putting an R tail on an S..... does anybody know if everything fits underneath...or do you need to use the storage space under the rear pillion, to make it all fit? |
