For those that really want to know, Missouri and Illinois require the plate to be lit and viewable at night from 100 ft I believe. A buddy of mine has been pulled over in both states for not having a lit plate.

However, for the 03+, the plate light is in the taillight housing, so there is no issue when removing the fender or stock plate bracket. Only on the 98-02 (can't say on the pre-98s).

Guys, 5 year-old thread...

Bill,

Get in our time machine then and enjoy the discussion.

I'm still very skeptical about how to mount the plate bracket to the back of the bike once the shovel is gone. I've seen some other bikes (not suzuki's) with a very "hacked up" looking job.... not something I want on my bike...

If you search this forum and others, you'll see examples of homemade fender eliminators that look as good or better than commercially available ones. I agree, if someone isn't skilled in this area, then leave it alone or buy one.
