Default Re: Tail Tidy & New Indys Fitted with Probs!

UPDATE

Well I decided to go and have a play around with the brackets that go onto the R&G Tail Tidy, and I found where the problem was coming from.

For those that are not familiar or looking to purchase, on the brackets with the tail tidy there are two holes that go onto the existing fixing points, then fixings for the tail tidy section itself, they basically move the mountings for the R&G part over to the gap in the undertray and fairing.

The part that protrudes from the top was catching on the lip of the bracket on the bike rear frame itself, and was pushing the brackets over, hence making it out of line when coming to fit the R&G tail tidy.

As you can see on the photos below, these are the bits I am referring to above, I have basically had to file down part of the bracket so that it doesn't catch on the part of the R&G bracket so that it all lines up as it should.





Once I had put the brackets back on and in place, I decided to check that the other section of the Tail Tidy fitted correctly before putting the rear fairings back on, and finally it did



As I ran out of time before I had to head off to the footy, I had to leave it like this for now but at least I know its just a case of putting it back on now.

Just need my number plate to come now and sort out the flash rate on the indicators, then onto the fronts.

Oh yeah just to add, I also got one of these off ebay

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3205669636...ht_1266wt_1114

Quality is excellent for the price and fitment is spot on, just adds a bit of bling rather than having a crappy black plastic thing on
