Re: poll: tail saver? yes/no
I would love one if they were under the tail, but the only ones I've seen are on top of it and they dont look too appealing



I just put about 4 layers of fiberglass under my tail, and the wood trick like Chad said, my tail has yet to crack and it will not flex at all

thats a tail saver.. metal plate that bolts into your seat.. saves ur fairings from getting mangled when your standing on them.. and i think it makes seat standers pretty damn comfortable

Re: poll: tail saver? yes/no
I dont think it is needed, I have a piece of wood and like 6 layers of fiberglass over steel mesh.
