Yes, I had it fitted when I bought the bike, not impressed, it looks like it's just been stuck on as an after thought, which in truth it is, see picture below.
Plus if you have one fitted you loose the option to have a grab rail or rack.
I'm an engineer, so I ended making my own tail tidy out of aluminium and got it powder coated, looks fine, and looks like it belongs there, I'll put a picture when I've fitted it, also made a rear mud catcher.

That is not the new rage kit. That’s the Indian kit.

That reply was for the Uk member above.
There was one guy on the Facebook group who said his came with the wrong connector and a stripped screw. The others who used them had no issues.
It’s the one I was going to buy but they took months longer than they said to release it so I went another route.
It’s the only one you can buy that angles the plate where it does. Other than toce

Robbie I know we have to have larger plates in the UK but yours is 'mahoosive' that's got to be a full 9" X 5" surely? Puts me in mind of an aircraft air brake.
Have a play with the link below and see if there's anything that takes your fancy?

I only have a six digit plate and to stay on the correct side of legality this is as small as I can go but it's still huge in comparison to some of the postage stamps I see over here nailed on. If I was to go smaller with my luck I'd get 50 yards from the house before getting pulled. I also don't want to run the risk of having the plate taken off me in the event of getting pulled personally.

There are quite a few 'closet Americans' over in the UK. Best time of my life was had on two TDYs over your side of the pond. A four and a half month one at Fort Walton Beach Florida (Eglin AFB) and another two and a half month one at Hurlburt Field AFB. I too have a penchant for American iconic branded vehicles. The 'Lumbering Behemoth' for more sedate riding than the FTR can offer.

Fudpuckers on the beach before it moved to Fort Walton and Nightown Destin were two of my favorite haunts. Along with Victors, Hog's Breath and a few others in Fort Walton itself. Best time of my entire life especially being there for Labor Day first trip and Spring Break the second. With a British accent and being single the World at that time was limitless.
