Looks good, did you have to cut the fairings for the crash bung fitting?

Nope not at all its an Evotech one which is no drill. its on a bracket that wraps around the frame and moves it 2cm back so it can come straight out. the LH side is straight into the frame with no cutting.

I thought that but i love the tail light and i have not see any tail tidy where you can keep that. All of the aftermarket ones have smaller rear lights which IMO dont look as nice.
