Hi All
Here's the tail tidy I made today
1.6mm Aluminium cut to these dimensions
I used the original Tail Light and reflector
This is of course only for the Aussie Number plates
Adjust the size for other places
Here it is drilled in the appropriate places, cleaned up, rubber grommet inserted and bent ready to bolt in place
Lights, Number plate, Reflector bolted into position
I used the original rubber seal at the back of the light as well, just had to trim a little bit off to allow for the rubber grommet
And finally installed
I think I'll make the bit with the reflector on it a bit smaller and clip the corners off as well.

Hi Steve just wondering why you had to fabricate up a tail tidy in the first place?
Not sure what you are asking
Do I need one ?orDid I make it because you can't buy one ?
Anyway, It's somewhere to put the number plate, lights etc... it also acts as a mud flap
it makes the bike legal on the road
Number plates wrapped around the rear mudguard are illegal
Does that Help ?

Very nice work Steve, simple but effective

My Tail tidy snapped off a couple of weeks ago, I was really happy with the design but I only made it from a 1.6mm aluminium scrap
The first one broke at the bend, this time I bent it around a piece if 12mm steel rod to curve it a bit rather than a sharp bend
I now have a 3mm one, it's nice and solid
Seems to work OK
