New tail tidy and stripes, a weekend work - SV650.org

27-02-11, 04:55 PM

Fitted my new Hamicad tail tidy and stripes this weekend:

Stripes were a massive pain in the **** to fit, took much time faffing around with a tape measure and a heat gun. Wasnt too sure about them, but they were only a tenner so I thought might as well. Very pleased with how they have turned out in the end.

The tail tidy is so much better than the standard shovel

just need to adjust where the number plate sits.

Just stuck automotive vinyl in google then rung up a few for some quotes. Bought 2m (only just enough!) of 5mm pin stripes with an 80mm centre with 5mm gaps. Wouldn't recommend where I got them from, took 3 and a bit weeks to arrive after promising 4days for delivery.
