Default Which Tail Tidy Do you have or want?

Merry Christmas All

With Xmas just around the corner Ive decided to ask santa for a tail tidy for my new sv 650 sport that ive just bought (not delivered yet). and was wondering which one to buy so my question is simple.

Please post the make of tail tidy that you know about or have with pictures and or links and Ill do the research and choose my favourite.

Did I mention that iv got an SV SPORT

Congratulations on your new bike. Enjoy.

I fitted a Route9 because it was cheap. It's not a very good fit out of the box. I had to make some mods to get proper clearance for the number plate light and altered the angle slightly. It leaves the usual gap around the outside which is easily sorted but I don't know if any other type sort the gap out by design.

I'm gonna guess you've got a pointy. I fitted a hamicad tail tidy to mine. Bit of a bugger to fit as I imagine all are, but looks very tidy and seems nicely made.

I bought mine after reading good things from other 'orgers.

Looks great but the only bikes i've seen photos of with this fitted, have the number plate mounted to the side. I'm not sure if this is allowed over here.

You're right I hadn't. I was just leafing through the pdf installation instructions though, and it's a central mounting - doesn't seem exactly like the pictures of your bike though. Is the pdf just out of date, or have you customized yours?
