Superb bit of kit IMO and a doddle to fit as well, overall very pleased with it, pics to follow at some point, when I remember to get my camera out! :lol:

tail tidy is a must on any bike.

Really nice tail tidy, if I get one it will be that one for sure!

Not sure if you saw another thread on here about number plate lighting requirements but you might want to think about getting some of those LED bolts for holding the plate on with. If traffic police pull you over and are on the ball they'll pick up on no specific lighting of the plate. The thread is here: http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=154820

The R&G tail tidy has an LED number plate light on it - you can see it best in the 1st pic, just underneath the tail light at the top of the plate.

[kaivalagi]

Apologies for suggesting something that wasn't needed, I definitely know which tail tidy I'll be getting in due time now!
I did try and look for a light but couldn't see it, and couldn't see anything on the R&G site either...I now know though, which is good.

Fitted my R&G tail tidy on my pointy sv a couple days ago.

It was the first time ive tried to fit anything like this and i got a bit confused to say the least lol.

But it does look great and im happy i bought it.

[kaivalagi]

What was confusing? I only ask 'cause I will likely fit one early spring...

[Teejayexc]

Is it me, but I can't see the pics in post #9 :confused:

[danf1234]

Nope me too

[kaivalagi]

They've been deleted from his photobucket account I suspect, they were there at one point :)

[Gman666]

it was only confusing bcoz ive never fitted anything like it before. im sure for someone with some experience it will be a pile of **** to fit :)

i saw someone who knew what they are doing take 2 hours doing it, it took me nearly 4 hours coz i didnt know what i was doing haha. got there in the end though il see if i can get a picture up in a couple days.

[kaivalagi]

Better to take your time I'd say...I'll be doing this and fitting a rear hugger in the spring...got to be done really :) After crash bungs it's a much needed mod, the bike looks so much better for it!

I think towards the end of the summer depending on mileage I may well upgrade the internals of the front forks and then I'll be done.............I think

[DarrenSV650S]

You'll never be done ;)

[kaivalagi]

Well yeah okay, I forgot the new screen, heated grips, hand guards, oh and a new exhaust after I drop it on the stock one :lol:
