Does anyone have a tail tidy for a 2003-2006 Z1000 that is being used with a ventura rack ?? If so, what brand is it and where did you buy it ?? Thanks.

I've got a tail tidy to fit that bike, but didnt' have a ventura rack on when it was fitted..

I can make ya one like mine

Hey Damon do you have a picture ?? Are you serious ?? Do you use it with a Ventura rack ?? Is there a light for the number plate ??

dont worrky about a light, the tail light lights it up.

if your gunna leave the rack on permanant, mount ya blinkers off the rack and ann you need is a bit of metal bent to the right angle and your set.

Give me a couple of days, at the mo I've got the stock shit on there for 'identity check' Tuesday

Wait till I get back and swap it over and I will post some pics, I made mine out of carbon fibre (weight saving ) but a standard glass fibre one will suffice.
Drill a couple of holes in it here and there for fixing and away you go.

I'm sure Wattie and Ron will vouch for the fit and finish.
Watties right you don't need a light, the rear drive/ brake light will illuminate nicely.

Wait a couple of days

+ 1 - Damon's is neat. No light required.

Mine is a stainless steel unit - can't see a brand name. It mounts on the original holes, which are used by the Ventura rack.
I'll put up a pic tomorrow.

if you are worried about a light , jaycar sell small flouro s ,you ll just have to run some tape across it to stop light shining back the brand on the eliminator is pyramid .

The cops are getting on these things here in OZ so I will need a number plate light, thanks for the advice.

a small clear led just above the plate connected to your rear lights will keep them off your back. Just drill a small hole, wire it in, and it's there.

I ended up making one myself and included the original number plate light and reflector as part of the tidy.
