    Still undecided on whether it would look better with the OE heatshield and plastics back on......

    Yep... I'm rubbish at aesthetics so can't put my finger on it. The can is actually designed to be fitted with the OE heatshield, plastic and plate hanger... but that would hide the can, and that defeats the object for me.
    The only thing I can think is that the height/angle of the can isn't right... there is a big gap between underside of subframe and can... may look in to getting the mounting bracket shortened by 10mm so the can sits more snug.

    I've still got all the gubbings as I don't like the look of most of the tidys, so added a carbon trim and job done...

    That reflector belongs firmly in the "acquired taste" category :)

    I keep kicking the rear seat cover getting on and off the bike leaving black marks from my boots on the orange paintwork so - I fitted a covering of Venture Shield on the cover. It looks a treat and you have to look very closely to see the stuff.
