I'm looking for an Undertray for the Bandit 600, preferably with integrated lights and indicators. I don't want to spend a fortune though, Under £100 would be amazing, but I can't find one for my model!

Mine is a SY model, right at the changeover, but all the undertrays that I can find are for the earlier models.

I basically want this:

Clicky

But for an SY model. (If there is a decent one without integrated indicators i might compromise)

I also want to avoid ones that are unfinished and need painting. I want it in black so this hopefully wont be an issue.

Any idea where i can get one for my budget, or does anyone on here have one they wanna sell me with a nice fellow BCF member discount?

Embarassed I just realised the link that I put up is actually for my bike. The listing says 2000 - k4 models. Feel like a mug

The link you gave me still uses the OEM light, i was looking for one that replaced it. But genuine thanks for the reply though mate. I think I'm gonna buy the ebay one, it looks pretty!

Here's a proper n00b question for you. What difference does the undertray make aside from integrating lights & indicators? Is is a purely cosmetic change, or is there a practical application?

The main reason I ask, is I've just bought myself a '99 Bandit 600 and was thinking about playing with a few mods...

Cheers,

Well, for me, Its a purely cosmetic change. I can't see any particualr performance improvement, but it just tidies up all the ugly mess at the back!

Also, how hard are these things to fit? What exactly does it involve? I Figured from research that i'll have to lop the battery tray off my old one, but what other nip/tucking will i have to do.

And how do i know where to cut the battery tray, will there be a gap if i cut off to much?

I have a friend who did a major mod job on his bandit 12. I can ask him about chopping bits to fit the undertray if you like?

Mr Cynical, that would be amazing if you could do that.

I know it may not be exactly the same, but any pointers or things that i need to look out for will prove massively valuable. You shall receive much karmary goodness if you get me that info!

easiest way to do it is take off the pillion handles, all the tail piece, move all the rear light loom out the way, get your bike on the centre / paddock stand and hold the new under tray underneath the current one, its pretty obvious what you need to cut where.

you'll be able to cut the plastic with a good stanley knife.

the tray hugs the bit which is already there, then tucks under the tail unit, which holds it in.


^^^ Probably what he said, but I'll ask my mate anyway. Hopefully should have some info for you by the end of the weekend.
