Modifications?

Has anyone modified the rear end of their MTS or does anyone know where I could get it done?

I would like to mount the rear light above the exhaust and into the seat cowling, something will have to be down with the indicators. I would also like to mount the number plate closer to the pipes so that you get a better view of the rear tyre - make sense?

Have a look on MULTISTRADA.NET you will find all sorts of information and discussion for the multistrada.

LEDS

Don't know if they would fit.

How about these flexible arrays. Available in red and amber

Two shorties for the indicators and a central long one for the stop/tail (using the dual circuit converter) Cool

Multi-tron-da

I must have missed that thread. DISTURBING.

I wonder if they consider our obsession with Ducatis as strange?

Found this on ebay. They're for a CBR but they look trick and would possibly adapt.

Digressing, this may amuse you. (turn up the speakers)

I assume you are thinking of mounting the rear light above the exhausts,and fix it or replace the bit of black plastic trim?
Not a lot of space there.The trim covers the rear portion of the subframe.I guess the led CBR light might just go in.(Did'nt iang fit one of these to a 999?)Also be carefull of routing the wires away from the hot can.
As no-one makes a plate relocator for the MS yet,you will probably have to toddle down to a local engineering shop to get one made.
