Hi fella have recently got a zxr 400 and have got a tail tidy on it that came with the bike. Make i think is called rarse end to be fair its not realy my cup of tea it made the bike look like it had been hit up the butt end more like but a bit of bending and shaping to angle it skywards has sorted it for now . Seems that no one does a direct replacement and all owners must be running round with the standard pooper scooper unless anyone knows different

Hi,

Are you on about tail tidy's which is more or less a number plate bracket or... an undertray which replaces the whole underneith of the back end? If so they're quite easy to get hold of and many companys make them. Ermax for example, they made mine before I sold it on. I got mine from intobikes.co.uk (warning though they're not cheap) Click here to check it out.

Regards

Rich

Werent a particularly large halfords, Motrax make exactly the same one. I suspect they are motrax products re-branded to GT Moto. Was in the managers special (aka reduced item) section for 14.99 down from 19.99.

Yep spotted those on halfords website they are the old motrax ones called rrarse ends i have one on my bike they are a bit crappy
I did spot some tidys from a company called D3
www.d3components,co,uk not for the 400 but they look neat and they can make them for any bike but i bet they cost a fair penny

I need something like this, i gave up on the idea of an aftermarket undertray (don't like the twin lights), soo i just hacked the standard one down, removing the number plate hanger and indicator mounting points.

I've hopefully sorted my tail tidy issues now. I chopped a fair amount of plastic off the standard back end and bolted the tail tidy from my old B1H on there.
What you guys reckon? It stills needs the plastic tidying, where its been "shaved" down.
