Bodge the standard snow shovel.

May have been discussed plenty times on here but i searched and didnt find anything, so apologies if it has.
Just wondering if anyones bodged the standard snow shovel so its not quite so ugly, im planning on getting a tail tidy eventually but got a service and r&g crash bungs to get first me thinks, and maybe new brake pads, still need to check them . Like i say its only a kinda temporary thing but just wondered if anyone has done it / what results came of it.

Cheers.

yep, my black SV has got the original plastic shell with some sort of tidied bracket to incorporate the original indicators and reg plate. It was already like it when I bought it.

I agree exhaust change from standard for the win.

exhaust is changed, thats just an olde pic on d.p thing. and im just seeing if anyone else has chopped the snow shovel as it would be free for me to do so, currently saving for other things. imo its more important to service the bike and make sure its runing A1 rather than make it look good.

If you're gonna get a tail tidy anyway I wouldn't bother. You may end up damaging something you need to fit the tail tidy and it's twice as much work.

Plus until the weather improves the shovel will protect the bike.
