I just finished this project.. I had posted earlier when was partially completed a week or two ago but now have it complete.. I stripped the funky tail/turn assembly off and went with a more clean/naked look. I modded (basically cut off the lower 4-5 inches) the rear fender and lower shroud and was able to keep the stock brake light. I added a pair of Adjure bullet turns, a side mount license plate holder and a Kuryakyn RTB controller. The Adjure turns are now running lights and super bright brake lights and add a substantial amount more light/presence to the back of the motorcycle. The license plate bracket also has an LED brake and is also a running light/brake light.. They all flash 4 times with every brake squeeze and then remain.. I took many pics along the way and happy to share if anyone interested in doing something similar.. In addition to cutting the lower portion of the subframe and brake light shroud I also had to drill a pair of 5/16 holes in both the fender frame and plastic rear fender itself. Lining those holes up was a little daunting (you only get one shot at getting those lined up just right!) but took my time and measured 10 times to make sure .. edit sorry don’t know why these pics are sideways.. they are vertical on my iPad when i upload...

I have never been a fan of the side plates but props for that one mate, looks sweet! A 200 on that rim would look even better imo

I have never tried one to be honest. If the laws weren't so meh over here I might even give it a go just so I know for myself what they are like but it isn't going to happen so I have to stick with what I know. In this case that little 20mm difference made all the difference and doesn't seem to upset my riding.


However delving into what can only be fantasy land for me lets do a 300 car tires like a Boss Hoss. Looks and no need for a kick stand. Win win

I wasn't sure what it was on one picture it looked like a winged car but the last picture it did look like a trailer and yes I did notice the exhaust pipe on your BMW GT1600, great bike.
