Question Rear fender and turnsignal elimination!

What are you guys running instead of the hugely ugly rear fender?
I'm planing to pull mine and ordered up a Termi 2-1 turnsignal bracket
(even though it would be easy to make my own, it's not worth the time for 19 bucks!)
and thinking either fab my own plate holder under the mufflers or if there is something good out there, just buy one.

Want to tuck it well in/up there to be able to avoid the coming toll on the bridge here too And that will also help if I cut a yellow to tight...

Show me what you got!

Fixed!

Fabricated a plate bracket that position it so it's clearly visible from the rear (cop in car safe) but guarantied won't be caught on any form of traffic cameras.
Cleaned up the ass good too

It's slightly more angled forward and have a nice tiny arch to it. The tire adjusts it to it's final and perfect position
AND it also will keep the tank, battery etc. from being sprayed with road debris since I'm missing the OEM splash sheild under there. (Seams that when the exhaust gets installed it's 'to much work' to put them back...)

Looks like a hard bump will hit the plate....

But then, I just don't have any problems with the stock setup. Seems like every bike made has an aftermarket "tail-tidy" thing available. Never have seen the need..

Ditto. It looks fine stock. Everyone tucks it up funny and I think sometimes it just looks silly if not worse. Be thankful we do not have EURO plates!

It looks good!
I don't like the stock assembly. Its overkill, 5 reflectors, really?

The stock rear fender and plate holder on ANY bike is always the first thing to be removed, doesn't the Termi 2 into 1 for the Hyper come with the FE kit?

I bought the bracket for the turnsignals that comes with the 2-1 Termignoni system, was a lot easier and cheap to not fab my own. But my 2-2 have a bracket underneath to bolt up the OEM fender, probably why it's 'street legal'.

Nice setup. I like. OTOH, what's up with that yellow container to the right? LOL
