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?
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
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!
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
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! :-)
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
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.
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! :-)

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

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!
Thanks BL :-) hopefully it helps folk when they fit their own! :-)
Just used it and it helped me a lot, the tail looks so much better, many thanks for the vid!
Ahh brilliant stuff, so glad you found it helpful 🙂👍

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

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

The grommet does stop some moisture getting under the seat from spray off the rear wheel, so it is a good design idea! :-)
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?
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
Now I want the tail tidy and the exhaust for my D250 and guess what... None are available in India lol
ahh man, that sucks. Can you order them from outside of India or is that difficult to do?
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.
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! :-(
