Anything out for the rear (block off plates)?

That "tag bracket" is ugly and driving me nuts. I can fab something, but plastic would "look" better.

Any suggestions???

I dig the OEM's, I am looking for a set of CR's to outfit my daughters blast, but to each their own...

Jake the measurements of the hotbodies Gsxr blockoffs mounting posts are really close to the mounting holes of the 25r,I think a slight re-drilling of one of the mounting holes is all it would take to get them to fit. I'm thinking about doing that mod myself this winter as I'm getting tired of the fuzzy rearview.

D2moto has also come out with some LED blockoffs ,I just haven't checked them out yet.

I just took a ruler and marked a hole every qtr. inch. Pushed them through the back and glued them in. Bright enough to see in the day time and very noticeable in the night, you can see them lighting the ground behind you while flashing. Made the bracket myself from some aluminum laying around the shop.
