Wondering if anyone has these and can post pics?

I understand the frame is shorter = lighter, but what about the difference in the battery pan? Anyone have these and can comment?

And with the shorter frame - any issue w/ passenger? (I'm taking pass pegs off - GF has her own bike...) but occasionally she wants to ride w/ me. Or more vibration from less support?

Random i know - thanks guys!!

Dude, this is a minimalist piece for racing/track days. No provision for lights, no cowling, no storage and certainly no passengers.

LOL - hey i'm looking for lighter, and if it means GF can't ride 2 up - that's fine by me!

I'm pushing for the solo tail w/o pass option personally... she's being difficult.

Just askin'! Still would like to see pics. If the tray doesn't have provision for brake light then it's a no go. Otherwise i'm fine w/o passenger ability!

Same deal for subframe - has to be able to keep stock brakelight. If not... oh well i'll look for other options.

Wasn't much info available, especially pics of them when i searched. Even if it doesn't work for me, i know with the race parts going bye bye - someone will want to know more about these soon to be extinct parts!

also saw a p/n for a lighter battery - anyone use this or similar? Supposed to be 8lbs lighter! What's the trade-off? Cranking power, lifespan, ...?
