Title: tail light conversion?
Post by: z315 on January 11, 2006, 07:26:02 PM
One of the biggest thing I don't like about the my GSF is the tail light. it's just ugly IMO. But anyways, are there are mods out there that i can purchase and install? I really like the tail of the SV650. is that possible? if so, anybody done it themselvies and offer a couple pointers?

What year is your bike?  I have an '04f, and supposedly I can put another bike tail on it.  (I think it's the GSXR750???)

Ebay has some clear taillight lenses with LED integrated turn signals...  Look great but for $80 +s&h, I'll pass

I put this CBR F4 tail light in but it was not a direct fit.  I had to tie-wrap it in.  I think one could make an adapter plate for a better installation but that's too much effort right now.
