Just call them before you order and tell them the year and make of your scoot.

They'll make sure the hole is the correct size for your axle.

I personally don't like the HUGE over hang of the stock fender when the stock license bracket is removed. But thats my opinion..I'm keeping the stock plate setup. Except I trimmed the hugeness of it by moving the plate up and cutting all the extra plastic off around the license plate frame. So now with the 180 tire the plate and tire are the same width. Just my 2 cents.. Good luck with whatever u go with..

Kinda difficult to show it's the same width as the tire but it is.. Notice non of that extra plastic is around the edge. Got the idea off one of the forums..

Trimmed mine off and went with a sidemount and regret it. If I did it all over again I would get the Harley chrome plate assembly. The one that comes stock on the screamin eagle deuce.

jd- i know what you are talking about....im not a huge fan of the shape of the tail (or lack of) because it looks kind of empty without the plate back there...i appreciate your input...

i think i will go with the heartland....or the road6....go cheap, or really what i want....probably end up with the heartland
