I have a 13 rss and want to open up the back and let that nice tire breath. Thought about a fender trim ( dremel) and a plate relocation. But I have a few stipulations.
1. Not a lot of cash flow at this time,like to do it cheap
2. Like to make it easy.
3. I don't mind keeping some of the fender
4.would like to keep the belt guard
I'm not sure if there is a thread running around about what was done,how to,wire routing etc... I know this has been asked just sifting through threads is time consuming and some dead end. I have a two bros single exhaust so showing off the tire more would be nice. Links I click for fender eliminators bring me to universal ones. I would rather ask the pros. Any help would make me happy
Half as short would mean a lot more water on your back, and if you leave off the goofy reflectors it really fits the look of the bike. Also includes a belt guard. They can be had from site sponsors for significantly less than retail, probably not 150 less, but still...

Best option right here! Cost: FREE! Unless you want to buy a light for it which is less than $5. I just took the plate, stock bolts, pre drilles holes and bolted it in. The light which you can kind of see right above the plate I got on ebay as a pair for I believe $3 free shipping. Pulled the stock harness back and did a quick disconnect from that harness to the new light.
Drew I like that mod might have to try my hand at that over the winter.
5pys3r that is an option too. Sounds quick and easy. That really opens that tyre up
I made a quick mod with just a couple of small "L" brackets and a set of LED licence plate lights from Walmart. I just drilled a small hole through the inner fender liner and put a nut and bolt on it to the "L" bracket. I cut the connector off the fender and spliced it onto the licence plate lights so that it plugs into the factory harness. I think for everything it cost be around $15.00
