Way.....too much money to pay someone else, for a coupla hours work and some scrap aluminum.

I tucked mine up as tight to the undertail as it would go, turn indicators just a little narrower than stock, a nice angle, so you don't have to be in an air plane to see it.

+1 on the Jardine.

Will post a pic tomorrow. Looks great, mounts the turns in stock location, and routes the cables in a manner similar to the stock piece.

Only downside is: it doesn't include a license plate light. Two possible solutions (in addition to "don't have a light"): dremel out a small area under the taillight, or (as I plan to do) buy a couple of lighted bolts for the plate.

I've had a few folks order a tail light from me to use with there Jardine pieces. As long as there is a small cut out, it works just fine.

The evotech tail and the prec. eng. Tail both have there own license plate lights.

I personally really like the looks of the evotech tail tidy ( one Trojan has )

+1 Jardine(fits good and the one bolt has never loosened with my hard canyon riding) and im fine without a light bulb and I know police in so cal area..you can see the plate fine with the little red/white lens. Hey I got the first prototype and I cant beat the price, LOL and its American! Thanks to all who have bought Jardine...they have done me great and making improvements with Buell exhausts/acc. Next they will be improving the Buell exhaust that I have, RT5 in CF. Any suggestions and I will let them know on the exhausts and fender eliminator,etc.

I did mine by just sketching a pattern and building out of a piece of stainless sheet. Came out good, IMO.

I can't see spending $100 or more when one can be had for a couple bucks and the satisfaction of doing it yourself!

I bought the tidy tail. Very easy to install and looks great. Took approx. 45 mins for me cause I removed the rear bodywork as per the instructions. After installing the kit I found I could've left the bodywork on. No probs, all went well.
