Post pictures of what adjustments or upgrades you have completed for the rear of your bike. (Tail lights, License Plate, Signals, LEDs)

I need ideas for my 09 XB12R. The tail section is all stock and I would like to change it up.
 
Cut the arms that attach to the turn signals off the plate bracket bend it out a little spin bracket 180, xblights integrated tail light, done.

What do you think??? Last pic is with brake lights on. Don't have pics yet but will if someone wants em, but I just tucked my blinkers down there with short amber LED's and outted the stock location of blinkers.
 
was going to do this...cut 3"-4" off, would take some frame work and fiber glass to marry everything back up

Chopped, sectioned, and shortened 😊. Had to cut the subframe and weld the seat latch farther up.

Loose I like it! Has a mad max kind of feel to it.
BTW am I seeing things or is that a single sided swingarm? That rear wheel makes me think of my long lost VFR800
My eyes might be playing tricks on me. I am getting old
 
Maybe this pic will help.
It's a Ducati rear, flipped upside down,and a Buell front. I built it 4 or 5 years ago.
 
Here's what I did. Completely removed old bracket. Bent the plate. Drilled some holes in the underside. Used led license plate bolts to mount it and wired them in.
