Yep I've got an R & G one. It re-uses the numberplate light off of the original snow shovel which I wanted so I didnt have to faff about with it come MOT time. Hasnt got a reflector though but I can solve that easily enough come MOT time.

Was easy to fit and the finish is good on it still after 15K miles, it hasnt gone rusty or anything.

+1 on the R&G Tail Tidy. Sam's got one on here GSXR.

The K6 and K7 ones come with a little LED light for the number plate.

Re the pointy tail tidy, surely you've seen the pictures of when I did mine?

The next sporty bike I get, will definately be an easier one than the SV.
