I had my TST Industries Tail Light arrive in the post a few days ago, so time for the next round of modding.

TST took about 9 days from USA to UK.....stung by a £17 VAT fee and £8 Royal Mail Fee :banghead:

I installed the TST as per the instructions, cut around 17-18mm from the edge of the bolt hole, and it took out too much!!! Now I have a gap :( Should have cut over 20mm (about 22mm) from the bolt hole for it to fit correctly. Too late now, and jsut a bit of warning to other users. I don know the reason behind this...UK variant? Who knows, but now Iḿ going to have to fill the gap as I ride all year round.





The light itself is excellent though, very very bright. Much brighter than what the videos show.

The LV exhaust does touch the TST. I may be able to adjust it a bit further, but think I may need to make a bracket.



I then installed some R&G Aero crash bungs. I don't like the look of them, but are a neccesary evil and look better than some. Took some fiddling and I needed to trim the fairing with a dremel, but all fitted.



Note, in the video there is an exhaust leak you can maybe hear. I need to re-seal it, and I didn't really rev it much.

En route from Tripage is the number plate holder that I can wait to arrive......I cant ride it until its installed :cruising:

I found out I did the same when I replace my old tripage setup with the new IT, cut a little to much. I just found some weather strip at the auto part store to fill in the gap.

These were the ones I used.

bart at tst sells a filler piece specially made if you happen to have a gap from a previous light that may have been larger than the tst,or if you happen to cut a bit bigger

I'll either try the above weather strip, or probably cut the old end piece up and plastic weld it together. Going to take some time though :)

On a positive note, Tripage plate holder arrived....very quick delivery and no tax dutys!!! woop :drunk:

May get it fitted tonight :)

When I installed my LV exhaust, I angled the bracket which dropped it down. It has plenty of room between it an the IT. Vehicle Automotive tire Motorcycle Tire Alloy wheel

I now have a gap of about 2 cm, which is all good.

Getting the exhaust central though is proving a right PITA, and getting the tripage plate holder level on top of that is another real PITA. It looks ok at the moment, but not perfect. Will have to spend a good few hours fiddling when I'm next off work. Then I can post some pics :)

Lookin forward to your progress. I have a 2bros and hoping the install isn't a PITA myself.

ALso sorted out the seal between the slip on and the cat with a bit of copper RTV....cant wait to start it up tomorrow and hear it without the slight blow from that section...it takes 24 hours too cure :retard:

A new non-wonky plate, a properly centered exhaust with a decent gap. Happy with it all now pretty much.

Only issue I have is the tripage plate holder...as I have to angle it a bit, the white LED are visable from the rear......asking to get pulled over for that. I will have too stick some duct tape or insulation tape over so it only shines down onto the plate.

A nice clear shot of the exhaust gap as well.

Cheers mate..tell me about it. The legal size is 9x7 inch, I have a 7x5 inch and dont get any bother, but could easily have a ticket for it.

Here is a picture:

Legal on left, 7x5 in the middle ( and seen on the bike), 6x4 on the right

I used too run the 6x4 but it caused me a bit of bother :D
