Tyga type tail but with pillion and compartment?

Post by **Spike16** » Thu May 15, 2008 8:53 pm

I plan to do a Hm Plant replica NC30 with he tyga fairing and tail unit (and hopefully and tyga maggot pipeif funds allow)this summer however i need a bike i can use everyday so want an underseat compartment to store stuff like disk locks etc, and need to be able to take a pillion passanger (dont mind about how comfortable, just able to carry one).

at the begining of the year i talked to Jap 4 performance and they informed that tyga were developing such a tail unit, however it has been 5 mounths and despite asking him again, via email, i have had no responcea nd nothing has come out, i need the bike done by agaust and unless it ocmes out soon i will need to look elsewere.

I was wondering if anyone has seen any tails that fit the bill, (would suit the front fairing have a compartment and pillion seat)?

Any pic's of your tyga jobs welcome too!!!!!

yeh iv seen these but was worned away from them before for sh*t quality, and im not sure them have a compartment under them (which is the main thing i want)

I'v seent he tyga nc29 tail has an compartment and pillion seat, wonder if that could be fitted easily

The under seat storage was a big factor when I was looking into fitting an alternative rear end on to my nc30, I used to have an nc35 single seat unit fitted but it was a pain knowing I had all of that unused storage under the hump. I instead modified a cagiva mito evo rear end on to my bike and am now very pleased with the look of the bike as well as the huge amount of storage under the easily accessable pillion seat.

What ever you do DON'T BUY ANY THING FROM K CONVERSIONS.............. i brought a RC211V rear seat unit which does have a lockable compartment but it was the worst piece of crap i have ever seen or owned. please avoid.

This is the panel i had and it needed loads of work to try and get it nice, loads of air bubbles and crappy fibreglass.

Thats the one i looked at earlier but was warned off it before,

Riley i like you mito tail but am not sure it would look good with a tyga rc211v fairing

How much was just the tail for K conversion out of interest?
