I concur, but then, I've never seen a tail tidy look right on any bike, they all look a bit bolted on. As long as we have huge plates (here in blighty), the rear is always going to be illegal, or look out of place.

The best I've seen on the Ten is where people have cut down the tail themselves, some good, some not-so-good. There is a plan somewhere on here for a combined plate and light holder that fits to the cut down rear..... one of our Austrailian friends made it I think.
