I installed the Fender Eliminator Kit on Saturday. It was pretty straight forward. Although, the instructions didn't mention anything about cutting off the taillights. I'm glad I had some wire connectors.
Looks 10x better.

The USB cable for my camera is at work. I'll post pics tomorrow morning.

Did you just have to cut the wires going to the turn signals so that you could remove them or what? I didn't realize you had to do any cutting with a fender eliminator kit. What brand did you get?

 

[BradPeart]

There wasn't a way to unplug them from the light fixture so I just cut them and reconnected them. It's not difficult. Just buy a pack of connectors and wire crimpers. I bought the kit from Competion Werkes.

Ouch... With my Fender Elim kit for my 500R, I didn't do any cutting of any wires at all. I did have to follow the wires though to get to the connector. I beleive it was half-way up the bike on the left-hand side. I had to take the side panel off to see it.

But, at least you got everything to work.

Here's before and after:

definitely looks better. i might have to do that to mine.

What exactly comes in the fender eliminator kit? cos from what i can see in the pictures you have removed the large black plastic of the 'fender' (mud guard to us brits ), surely the same effect could be achieved by cutting down the fender plastic and relocating the number plate and indicators?

 

[BradPeart]

All that comes in the kit is a piece of steel that replaces the fender and mounting hardware. One could alter the stock fender. I didn't want to risk screwing up, though.

Here's a quick pic from a MFG'r of a elim kit.

This is the kit for the EX250:

Basically, mine angled my license plate, moved the rear turn signals up higher and closer to the brake lights.

Now that my bikes out, I can get a pic of the Fender elim kit I have on it. I bought mine for my 500R (EX500D) from Competition Werkes for $60 + S&H.[/url]

I've done the fender eliminator kit too, its soooo much better than stock.

I can't believe you had to cut wires. I installed the same kit (competition werks) and I didn't have to cut anything. Just followed the wires to the connectors and unplugged them.

thats all I had to do too, no cutting of wires.

Same here, I installed the Competition Werkes elim kit and I didn't cut any wires.

i got bored, made my own fender eliminator kit out of an aluminum computer case i had laying around.... it's not pretty if you look real close, but it looks nicer than stock. i'll post pics after i clean it up and make it look nicer.

and i didn't have to cut the wires either.

I guess that's one way of recycling your old computer!!!

 

[rednek426]

who'd have though that comaq would be good for something?

 

[Imposter]

Yeah man, I got some pics of my fender eliminated too. Here it is brothers and sisters.
