    Hey man, good informative video. Looks way better with the R&G tail tidy! Just to confirm, it does actually pointed in the instructions to put the illuminator on first, sixth bullet point on the fitting instructions section.

      I think my pages went out of the correct order, thank you for pointing that out, I have pinned your post so it should help others who buy the R&G tail Tidy for the bike! :-) I never saw any mention of attaching the light to the framework, just the bit where it stated to put on the heat shrink! :-)

      Cool dude, yes it's literally the bullet point right before it tells you to put the heatshrink on. Phew I thought I screwed up doing the fitting instructions for it, anyway are you happy with the product though?

    • @HippoDrones

      I love the look, although it does make the mudguard pretty ineffective as water roosters now even with the full size number plate.

      Unfortunately that's the downside on having a tail tidy, it improvise the look not the function. Just for your information, you've got a wrong set of paddock stand bobbins as the ones you have will or have the tendency to hit the exhaust when the rear shock is fully compressed. There is a kit specifically made for this bike which sits lower. Try to contact them or the shop where you got the kit from

      oh that is interesting, do you have a part number I can quote when contacting the supplier?

    Appreciate videos like this with how thorough you are with fitting, so anyone doing it themselves don't have a problem. Kudos to you!

    I put those bobbins on mine, even though I have a centre stand fitted I figured the paddock stand would have been sturdier. Two years later I haven’t used them hahaha!

    • @HippoDrones
      @HippoDrones  7 років тому

      hahaha :D although center stands are a big weight, they are damn handy! :-)

      paul ajay hi, I ordered it online, just Google R&G Racing and search for items for your bike on their website :-)

  • @xXPondusGamingFifaXx

    this the part at 9:13 come from the original plate holder or the tail tidy?
    great video!

    • @HippoDrones
      @HippoDrones  7 років тому

      It comes with the R&G tail tidy! :-) Thanks buddy, means a lot to get positive feedback! :-)

    • @xXPondusGamingFifaXx
      @xXPondusGamingFifaXx 7 років тому +1

      think this is the only video showing how to do this. at least the only one this good! i got a different tail tidy and it did not come with that part... maybe i can just find it on ebay tho

    • @HippoDrones
      @HippoDrones  7 років тому

      The grommet does stop some moisture getting under the seat from spray off the rear wheel, so it is a good design idea! :-)

    • @HippoDrones
      @HippoDrones  7 років тому +1

      I hope you find the part. If you like my content, why not subscribe to my channel, that way when I do more mods to my KTM 390 Duke you'll get a heads up! :-)

    Did u make something new on the cable like cut and burn together?

    • @HippoDrones
      @HippoDrones  6 років тому

      no mate, just used the stuff supplied in the kit. I am a little disappointed with the quality of the R&G Tail Tidy, the paint has come off it in several places, just peeled off! :O

  • @PhantomRides
    @PhantomRides 6 років тому +1

    Now I want the tail tidy and the exhaust for my D250 and guess what... None are available in India lol

    • @HippoDrones
      @HippoDrones  6 років тому +1

      ahh man, that sucks. Can you order them from outside of India or is that difficult to do?

    • @PhantomRides
      @PhantomRides 6 років тому +1

      Hippo-Drones yes I will have to place international orders but am sure the customs in this country will butt fuck me Haha. But your videos helped a lot for sure.

    • @HippoDrones
      @HippoDrones  6 років тому +1

      I hope you don't get stung too hard, we have the same issues when buying from the USA, customs always gets their slice of the pie! :-(
      Am glad I helped, even though it might cost you! :-)
