                  I did not get what u actually mean...
                  But...to say about the price.
                  Tax,insurence,and bike cost about 2.54lks.
                  In Kerala any motorcycle above 1 lakh should pay 10,000 to govt. .and as per the price of 2.54 it ll get about 20,000 more...and..total 2.74lks

                            DIY Tail Tidy.
                            A mod which is a must abroad (and now in India) as it gets rid of the ugly rear end and streamlines the rear end of a sports bike.

                            More over as it weighs almost next to nothing reduces weight significantly. Also there is no need for the licence plate light as the illumination from the parking light is more than sufficient.

                            Made this using rust proof aluminium and proper tooling. Will be powder coating this one black.

                                Hi. Yes, I am on the rc390 forum.
                                The design is as you see in the first pic. I did it pretty much by eye using a one piece aluminium angle and didnt keep any measurements.

                                As you can see I have got rid of all the unecessary bits (saree guard, rear hugger, mudguard, grab handle, footpegs, licence plate light). I only ride solo anyway. It bolts into the last two holes of where the rear metal plate holding the mudguard is bolted into the chassis under the rear seat. The holes for the turn signals are replicated on the new bracket.
