Virtually any tail will fit as long as you build your subframe.
The only other problem that I had with using street bike bodywork was making the seat fit. Race bodywork might be easier, then buy the sticky seat foam. I did think about using Gixxer K8ish rear end until the Daytona 675 Sub frame came up, cheapish

yeah the fitments not a problem, that can be sorted. for some reason i always sway gixxer, and it kept coming back to my head so i just wanted some more ideas.
i think i would prefer to go for a race unit and use the foamy stuff, just cut the holes nicely for some lights to go in. how did the fitting for the daytona subframe go? |
