    Any one taken off a tail light on an XJ 650 or 750 I want to put an aftermarket one on but not sure how it would look with a huge hole missing from the old light, anyone have any pictures or ideas?

    Maxim or Seca. Big difference in the tails of the 2 models.

    650 fender has better foundation to work with. you could use screws to fill small holes and a metal electrical box hole plug to cover holes many styles

    or this style

    tombstone light would be nice. you want a big light behind you so you can be seen

    you could also make a custom fender from a boat trailer fender

    or go to tc bros and look at the fenders they sell

    Bright, not necessarily big. LEDs are nice. I'm using an R1 from a about 2007.
