Undertail
I am looking to do something different with my '98 superhawks rear end. I have seen some really nice 1000rr mods etc, but I am not sure that I want to veture out into more custom fabrication. I saw an undertail the other night that looked rather nice. What are some thoughts on undertails? I would like to purchase something that will look awsome and be built to last. I appreciate all your input and advice.
Thanks, Walt

I don't have one, nor have I ever installed one. I did do quite a bit of research however, and simply cut my stock fender a bit. 1. I didn't want to cut most of the stock undertail out (it seemd with all aftermarkets, a large portion of the stocker has to go. 2 They cost a lot. My advice would be, if you buy one, make SURE it is for a superhawk. There are tons of them for the VTR1000 that WILL NOT fit a superhawk.

I have a spare undertail. It is a Rumble Import with 2 round taillites, not the retarded looking cat eye tailllite. It is red and I have red & clear lenses with it. If interested, let me know.

Unfortunately not. I sold this a while back and UPS decided to fold it in half in route to the buyer. I got it back and the only thing salvaged was the tail lights.. Not sure if they make this one anymore.

Ermax makes huggers and undertail kits for the Superhawk. I was told that they don't require much/no cutting to existing bodywork. My mechanic who has been working on my new to me VTR1000F insisted I buy one. He builds Blackbirds and uses Ermax undertail kits and swears by them.
