$240 plus an install kit and another kit for the rack...

Still, it looks cool.

I love the look of it until you get about half way down the screen, to the price tag. OMG what are they thinking. Once you get one and put it on your bike lets us know if you like it

It fills in the obvious gap of black plastic when the MoCo switched to the 200mm rear fender.
So, it's either a sexy flowing and shorter LED tail light that's blacked out to match my bike, or the old fashioned tail light sticking out like a sore thumb surrounded by an ugly fill in...

I almost bought the Joker Machine unit for the stupidy ridiculous price of $400.00. I'm thrilled that I waited.
