Hi guys What are your preferences on a tail tidy for a 2011 model? I've been looking at the R&G LP0063BK but then also has anyone bought from TST Industries in the US? I've seen they do an integrated tail light and plate holder that gets located further down under the seat. Any thoughts and ideas are welcome. Cheers
Be careful with the US plate holder under the seat as it tends to hold the letterbox plate which is a bit ' in your face' illegal & will probably get you pulled & your botty spanked

Sorry dude pics are a bit pants, I'll take a better one in the daylight outside. got an integrated tail light on mine so going to remove the indicator mounts if it passes MoT ok with the tail light to tidy it up.
Yeah it looks good, I looked on the website and liked it, where is the tail light from and was it easy to install? Cheers
I got the taillight secondhand off eBay, but its the same TST Industries one as in your first post. It's just plug and play, although you either need to install some ballast resistors, buy a flasher relay for LEDs or I think you can also modify a standard relay so that you get the correct flash rate.
i think the tail tidy i've got must be an older design as the one on their website looks a bit different.
Yeah that looks great, I'm definitely leaning towards the evotech one so far over the rest I've seen! Cheers
I have a Yoshi one on mine. As it's from the US tho it is made to hold their custom sized plates. However I just stuck my plate on over it. Nice wee LED light strip to illuminate the number plate, and doesn't impeded the indicators.
I love the TST items like I have on mine, I have not had any issues with the police yet with size or placing of my numberplate but depends how strict they are in your area
Mine's an R&G, fairly compact, seems pretty well made, you can use the original indicators and I like the connections were identical to the Honda ones so no cutting and bodging wires.
I liked the idea and look of the TST industries gear and thought if I'm gonna spend probably in the region of £100 for just a tail tidy then I might as well pay a bit more and get the integrated tail light and plate holder from TST. I'm going to ask at the garage where it'll be mot'd if it'll pass with the TST stuff on? If not I think I'm going with evotech. I've just got my new log book back for my private plate so it's had to go on the original tail tidy, God it looks nasty!!!
