Default Tail tidy mods

Had to convert my K4 naked back to standard for it's MOT, and thought I would share the before and after pics. Thanks again phil24_7 for supplying me so speedily with the lovely "snow plough" number plate hanger!

The following thread was also really helpful, giving a step by step guide.

I haven't got the failure notice with me, but it was along the lines of the break lights being affected by the indicators. As the after market set up on my bike has them integrated into the rear lights. When I looked into the rules it appears that the indicators are also meant to be a certain distance from the rear lights, though this wasn't mentioned at my mot, so I put the stock shovel back on.
