Hey there,

IF you just want to get rid of the "thing" hanging off the end of the tail - I suggest a tail tidy by Renegade. Not sure the price but give em a call.

http://www.renegade-products.com/ren...724/2782.html?

It was relatively painless to fit and the best bit is you don't need to cut or destroy anything in the process.

oh - looks damn good too!

If you are after a full undertray - I'll sell you my brand new Powerbronze (black)...any offers... or otherwise Ermax make really nice ones with intergrated indicators....

cheers

If you just want something to remove the ugly tail, then Hamicad is the way to go. Personally I wouldn't touch the Renegade solution, it's ugly, flimsy, and has sharp edges. The Hamicad is a much neater and better thought out solution.

If you're actually after fitting a true undertray.. then there are few options. Ermax is one, and looks good, but is a bit of a pain to fit. There are others, and Banditmania do a good one I think. Worth having a look.

I've got a colour-coded Powerbronze undertray on my bike - It fits over the top of the standard undertray (but the standard undertray must be cut into shape to fit it...) I really like it

Be warned, don't fit a painted undertray without a hugger being fitted, otherwise it'll be stone-chipped to hell in no time (thanks ART )

Thanks for the advice.

Tail Tidy is what i meant, as opposed to an undertray.

I shall investigate.

Cheers Cloggsy.

Are they easy to fit.... ie no cutting or tools required that aren't in the tool kit provided. I live away from home & haven't got any gear with me, plus i ain't too much of a diy buff!

All you have to do is unbolt 4 bolts to remove the snow shovel & using the same 4 bolts, re-bolt the fender eliminator in place... It isn't difficult, it's just a bit fiddly

You have to remove the tail section to get to the bolts - use THIS link to see the 'how to...' - its easy honest (I've done it ) There is even a little movie at the end to show you how to slide the tail section off

N.B. In the 'how to...' you don't have to remove the battery leads

I agree, Hamicad are the guys to get the tidy from, their cooler covers are top notch as well. Just give yourself more time than you think you need and you will have no problems.
