I'm sure that tail tidy is about 30% more expensive than it was on RSVR.net (who weren't always the cheapest anyway), didn't they used to be about £32-£35 inc VAT?

EDIT: Interesting...
123 Bike Parts Limited was started in 2009 by Nicolas Wade after the demise of RSVR.net

Nicolas started working with Paul Bridgland (PAB), the original creator of RSVR.net, in 2005 and in 2006 (as Nicolas jokingly put it) he was sold with the company to Simon Steele. The next 3 years Nicolas worked with Simon running the day to day operation of RSVR.net, which involved negotiating with new suppliers, filling orders, answering emails and basically becoming the voice at RSVR.net.

Due to the relationship he had built up over the years with both suppliers and customers and having a discussion with Paul Bridgland, Nicolas decided to step up to the plate and fill the gap left by RSVR.net and opened his own shop

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Well, given that, I don't think I'll even bother bookmarking it. Price is ridiculous!

The AF1 store has them as well, at what is probably a more reasonable price.

It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.

Just to annoy the original poster, I fitted my Evolucione Tail Tidy this morning. All I need to do now is get the new indicators sorted out and it will look a lot better.

I think the one on my back with the evo tail tidy... i'll have to check... but its coming off when the new one arrives (i'm going the blenks route).

It'll be up for grabs if anyone want it in a few weeks... together with a new (ok used but as good as new!) rear light lower panel (I bought one from eBay but it was grey and not black like I wanted!).

I'll post a pic of what I think is the evo tail tidy later and if anyone is interested send me a pm :)

I think the accept on the 'make offer' is set to > 27, my offer of 27.01 was accepted and will hopefully arrive soon.
