Ferret, Yes. If you look close at the bracket, or go look at the Dart mounting instructions, you will see there is a screw hole at the top of the bucket bracket. The screen bracket has 2 mounting points, one of which uses that top hole.
I'm not seeing that hole on the OEM bracket

Congratulations, elemenopi! I can't flat foot it either and maneuvering it at low speeds is a pain. Don't let redbirds talk you into removing the RLETs. You may save an ounce, but I can't speak for the consequences.

An RLETectomy, carefully performed with an Exacto knife is your best hope.

Redbirds, you're a tormenter! Such a great set up but on a family-friendly forum there's nowhere I can go with it. Maybe I have a dirty mind as they used to say.
Anyway. Elemenopi, you play safe and leave those RLETs right where they are. Plucking the wings off angels is not good karma.

I wonder if he weighed them prior to installation. I know when we weighed the stock pipe and a staintune for the single pipe 2013's there was like 3 1/2# difference. Sorry, did not weigh them, as that was not my primary concern. They did feel lighter, though. Mostly, they just sound great! RonInMo also has a set.

So what is the consensus on the RLETs? Yes or No? I found a really nice sparkly purple pair for $200 on craigslist because I want everyone to know that I'm a lady.
Obvious sarcasm is obvious. You guys are hilarious.

Enjoy the bike.
My wife is also a compact person, after spending lots of money on various bike lowering do-dahs I found a solution she approves of - new riding boots with a lot thicker bottoms. ¾ of an inch improvement and new shoes!

LMNOP,
We have a 53 page thread on RLETS, believe it or not. http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2491 |
