I'm looking for a tail tidy for my X as well. There are various tail mods with photos in the forums, just search for "tail tidy".

To buy, I only found the one from off-the-road.de but with that price I'm still looking at pics from members hoping to find something easy enough for me to do.
Here's the link: http://www.off-the-road.de/en/XT-660...XT-660R-X.html

Appreciate the response. I have searched the forum and found various threads and images of differing tidies.
Im not wanting to pay OTR prices either tbh and have found a few i like the look of but haven't seen these on an X or R. And they are universal so placement of indicators and proximity of the number plate and the exhausts etc are an unknown factors

I'll post pictures of what I've found .

If you do manage to fit one though, it'd be great to have a few info about how you did it.

I'd also be interested to see some pictures if anyone has fitted one of these to an x as they look a tidy unit, some even have the indicators built in to the light

A mates bike failed the MOT due to the indicators being in the rear light unit.

Went for this one,good price and delivered. Polisport is supposed to be reasonable quality even tho it looks like the cheaper ones.

As soon as I get it ill be offering it up and seeing how/where the number plate will fit(or not) and order a plate

Pictures will be posted.

On a slight tangent,it is rear end related, the rear tailpiece has lost its reflective look..any ideas how to restore it?..
