Title: undertail kit for '07 1250S
Post by: bucciant on July 21, 2010, 07:43:32 AM

I'm having a heck of time finding a nice fender eliminator for my bandit.  holeshot had one I liked but it seems that kit has been discontinued.  I want to keep the large tail light [brake light] and just add flush mounted blinkers and a licence plate bracket.  The ones I'm looking at now involve removing that large light.  I don't like the looks + the lights are so small they have to be dangerous.

Any suggestions?  btw...I really love the holeshot slip on I purchased and installed a month ago.  That thing is tops.

BanditMania has a nice looking undertray for the 1250 and a LED tail light conversion that incorporates the signals.  Since the Bandit is more popular in Europe than here, you may need to buy from that side of the pond.

I like it but I am a little confused about how and what to order.  Does the painted undertail come with everything I need for conversion?  Do I order it and also order a clear or colored lens?  What I want is a red lens with the clear bottom for the license plate.  Do I need to order blinkers for it too?

The undertray comes with an OE style lens with a cutout to light up the plate.  It doesn't come with blinkers, you'll have to decide what you want to do there.  You could add the LED tail light, which has integrated LED blinkers - where one half of the tail light will change from red to yellow and blink.  You'll have to ask them if there's any provision in that light to illuminate the plate, I don't know.

There's probably other EU outfits that offer up something similar, that was just something I found in ~ 1 minute of looking.  :motorsmile:
