DIY Tidy Tail AKA Volcanic Ash Special

Got fed up waiting for over 2 months for a DP tidy tail. My dealer made mounts for the rizoma blinkers either side of the tail light (very bright) and I fashioned a licence plate bracket out of an aluminium bracket I had laying around when I got home. Looks pretty good so I am sticking with it.

Rizoma makes very neat little mounts for their Track 77 blinkers for the front. For the rear these were just made from some scrap alumiuim strips with holes drilled in either end and bent then mounted using the two bolts that are under the tail light cover.
