+ Top product and customer experience
I was going to give this product a 3-star review, but EvoTech were excellent in handling the problem I encountered.
This is straightforward to fit and looks excellent. Expensive but a premium product.
The issue - following the fitting instructions is straightforward, but the issue is that there is no mention of the options you should /not use depending on the plate size. I used a standard UK plate, and the fitting instructions do not lend themselves to this. I know this as on my first trip out, the tail tidy got damaged and bent back on itself following a rather heavy compression of the rear suspension resulting in the tyre and tail tidy touching. Evotech were happy to assist, and I replaced the damaged parts. If you're using a standard plate (the legal one), you need to use the longer indicators stalks, do not use the reflector plate, mount the reflector to the number plate, and push the plate as high as possible. This should all be in the instructions, which it is not.
A great looking tail tidy made of top quality materials, with an innovative design that completely conceals all the wiring for the indicators and number plate light. Supplied with all fastenings and fixings. The rear of the bike looks so much better. Well worth the extra cost compared to other cheaper designs.
However, one suggestion for improvement…
As there are only two fixing holes for the number plate, a full-size UK plate vibrates badly when riding due to wind load. I’ve drilled a third hole at the bottom of the “vee” which has solved the problem. It would have been much better had this additional hole (or slot) been made during the manufacturing process before the powder coating was applied.
