CBR1100XX owners... where can I get a ducktail?

**hoops** · 23rd July 2005, 09:32

Hello... I've seen searching for a ducktail (rear extenda-fender) for my XX ('04). I sourced one from the UK but contrary to the supplier it's not suitable for the XX... it looks like an "after thought" or "tack on". Has anyone installed a ducktail that looks like it came with the bike....??
I've tried various places in Aussie.... which seems to make ducktails for all "late model Honda's"... but not the XX.

I've been told there is a place in Hamilton that may sell these..... can anyone help. Thanks!!

Oh, a bit about myself/the bike. I've had the XX for about 18 months (and its only travelled 6,000k

(yeah, I know). Before the XX I was without a bike for about 7 years.... prior to that CBR1000FN (stolen), CBR1000FK, GSX1100F, CBR600, VT250, MVX250F (

) ...

Happy and safe riding everyone!!

Welcome to KB, mate. Nice bike you've got there, and you've had some other nice ones. I've got a mate that is going to get a 'bird as well before too much longer.

Hoops - have you tried Pete at www.blackbirdspares.co.uk/ or Jaws at www.jaws-motorcycles.co.uk/ There's stuff-all those guys don't know about Blackbirds and their service is about 5-7 days. I have a front fender extender but have never seen a rear one - I have a Pyramid hugger, but that doesn't stop rear spray of course.

Cheers

What Geoff said. Great service from these guys, and they're not out to rip you off. There's nothing these guys don't know about the Bird.

Welcome.

Cheers guys. I got a front extenda-fenda, rear hugger and tank protector from Jaws in the UK. Later got the ducktail from them as well.... but like I said it just doesn't look right.... it didn't even fit/mold correctly in to the shape of the factory rear guard (I'd post a pic but would u believe it my hdd crashed today... (let's hope my 3-month old CD archive works!). Tried blackbird spares, looked at sites in the US, japan and Aussie..... I'm sure there must be something out there... I"ll just keep lookin....
