Re: Curvy Tail Tidy?
I've just made one for my curvy, thanks to Wildboy for the inspiration and guidance.

Re: Curvy Tail Tidy?
You can get a bolt on one which requires no cutting from TCP, they made the official Suzuki ones!
Or I believe ROCA make one, check out the bandit mania website. Last edited by Dangerous Dave; 03-03-08 at 09:06 PM. |

Re: Curvy Tail Tidy?
I'm in the same position... I like the idea of temporarily cutting the stock down for the mean time until i have enough to get a pyramid. I've seen one SV on here that literally just has the stcok number plate light got the indicators comeing out of there it looks really smart.
Hovis you got a pic of your " carried away" job lol? |

Re: Curvy Tail Tidy?
OOOh right me not being very observant there. Its not OTT but would it be possible to cut down the bit where the indicators fit at all?
