Hack saw I'm afraid I don't think they ever made a tail tidy proper

hmm.. would it be all that hard to machine one myself? its a pretty simple mechanism...

Go for it after you do, send me a pic and details I've got a machine shop at work I could get some guvvy time in.

My 01 curvy arrives later today (Homer: Wahoo!), that's something i want too, but arent't the indicators all part of that unit?

I would love it to look like this....

I'm a bit confused, will have to examine my bike a bit further when it finally gets here!

Quiff made his own, from a template he got from somewhere as did Cuffy.

Have a search I'm sure the threads about how to do it are still out there somewhere.

enter the site,click on mods............ then on the piccy of the tail tidy

my plan was to do this at some point, but i just got carried away with a hacksaw

HTH

That's really good, but a bit DIY'ish, if you mess up then...!?

I can't believe no-one manufactures one for a straight swap!

If you got hold of "80 quid undertray from powerbronze" that is just the undertray above the wheel presumably so what indicators and numberplate mounting do you use?

The other thing to try if you can get hold of one is one of these

This is / was the official Suzuki OEM part for the curvey undertray it re-uses all the orginal fitting ( number plate light, number plate bracket etc ) and you can bolt your original indicators or mini ones to it.

They are a bit rare so I dont know how easy it'll be to find one.

I've got one on my bike, its a good piece of kit and you dont loose your underseat storage like some of the other undertrays do.

This was all i could find on eBay...

Although i cannot see on the white plastic the two little holes on the picture of what it looks like fitted so hmm!? Presumably this would be where the indicator/plate fitting would be attatched but where would one of these be acquired from? I could not find one on eBay, the sort of thing would be that similar to what was used on the DIY site linked to earlier i think.

Any recommendations?
