License Plate Holder
 
Hello

I want to remove my current license plate holder, it's too big and ugly.

Here's a picture of it:

How can I make it look like this:

I bet some of you have done this. Could you guys help me out?



Cheers!

Or if you/partner/parent is any good with a bit of hardware, use the pattern on here and make your own. I did mine last weekend but i've been off work so couldn't get pictures on here :roll: . It took me about half a day to make it up, fit it, take it off and paint it then refit it all. My bike now has a very petite rear end as opposed to the monstrosity that was :shock:
I'll get back to you with pictures 2moro but the link for pattern and explanation is Here www.sv650.tk It's under the mods section. I modified the design slightly so that the ECU sits in it's normal place, and made a hanger myself instead of buying the motrax one. Even used original indicators but they somehow look smaller.

From The side

From the Back

And as you can see the ECU goes back in the original place so no chopping/relocating wires. I've also tinted rear light and indicators with tinting spray from halfords. Finishes the job nicely i think :lol:
