I've yet to have an undertray / tail tidy bracket (and number plate) to stay in place on one of my bikes. That's 2 sv650's, 1 ninja and 1 on hornet. Aftermarket rear ends are pish, end of. Look nice but fall to fucking bits. My fet friggin' hate. Evil or Very Mad

I just emailed a complaint to Motrax, stating that the design of the hinge is poor, theres no threadlock or anything to stop the 2 x pins that go through the hinge from coming loose Sad

My R&G tail tidy has been fine the year and a bit I've had it, no problems what so ever. Even the number plate that is just stickied on has never come off it.

give her one of her own much safer

my sister made her husband nearly hit an oncoming car he went into a bend a bit quick ( didn't realise how tight it was ) she refused to lean that little bit extra and made him go wide

he brought her, her own so she can try to keep up

but now we do have to stop every now and then to let her catch up but she does seem happier

That sounds like a classic excuse of trying to blame someone else for his own poor judgement whilst riding. Very Happy

Oh and as for tail tidy's, I've got a Harris Performance one on my R6 and have no problems with it whatsoever.

I think its the classic case of you get what you pay for and in all fairness Motrax stuff isn't exactly top quality gear. When you consider that the Motrax bracket is about £20 and my Harris one was nearer £50, I'm not surprised that yours has fell to bits whilst mine still is fine.

Next time go for a better quality product than a 'cheap' Motrax one. Thumbs Up

That sucks Crying or Very sad , Evotech's tail tidy's are very well made so they're definately worth a look mate. Again they're around the £50 mark.
