For the ones using an alloy subframe, what have you done with the undertray please?
I'm thinking about getting a wheel huger thing, do I really need the undertray?

If your using road fairings then yes you need the undertray ideally.
I think the subframes Rick O sells fit the standard undertrays as stock, The ally subframe i have needs some chopping about to fit right.

Planning to use the "NC35/RC45 style single seat rear unit for road" from Gavin, and the battery will be a Durbahn light one.
I saw some cut down undertrays on some bikes and a tail tidy for the number plate/indicators. That could work, no?

Thats the exact same setup i have, im keeping the undertray more for practical aspect of it and mounting the durbahn battery either on the side of the subframe or in the nose cone to keep it cool. Use the original battery tray for storage

Found a post earlier about someone putting the Durbahn battery in the nose cone, might have been a post from you then.
I'll keep the undertray.

Having the space where the standard battery noramlly goes free's up the space for a piggy back shock

CBR600RR ones go straight in and can be picked up dead cheap, even fancy ones. Just re spring them with a 800-850lb srping

I was thinking of going for a Hagon shock, the one without the remote reservoir.
As for the nose cone, I'm getting the Suzuka endurance one from jap4perf.

£300 for a hagon, you could do much better for the money IMO

You mentioned CBR600RR shock, if there a specific year and do I need to cut/weld/make anything to fit it?
