i have also removed the grab rail on the bike

but then I got to play with the indicators and this is how the tail end looks now

I am pleased - looks like they were designed to fit there

Nice work Aladin, but I know if I did that the beast would scream out to be dropped.....

Nooj, yours look good too even though it is brown.

one thing though nooj- what registration plate light are you using?

I have managed to lose mine totally - very camp, very effective, but those bolts that hold the number plate on are LED lights - good enough to satisfy an MOT inspector, bad enough to make the plate ..... hard to see shall we say :)

Nooj seems to have gone one further. He's not only lost the registration plate light, he seems to have lost the registration plate.

Yep, got an idea for that as well. Will risk the £30 fine, not like there's any Plod out on the streets to see it these days anyway.
