Duke 390 (2017 - 2023) tail tidy adapted to the 801

[Tom]

Here the summarized pics of how an aftermarket Duke 390 (2017 - 2023) tail tidy can be adapted to the 801.

What I've done:
A baseplate is added, the angle of the license plate mounting plate is corrected to about 45°.

I'm going this route. Have ordered a 390 Evotech kit and will be using Tom's drawing file to make the base plate.

Looking good there Tom!
Evotech really needs to hurry with their Tail tidy for 801!

Thanks!
It won't be long and everyone with an 801 has built his own tail tidy; possibly using an "alternative" Aliexpress unit instead of an Evotech...

Unfortunately I don't have access to tools, or skillset to modify those, reliant on the mercy of third-party maker.

Wow! I've just ordered the evotech 390 one, but those aliexpress copies are very cheap!!

...but those aliexpress copies are very cheap!!

Yes, but in my opinion the Evotech with the separated indicator stems and the bigger number plate bracket looks better.

Okay, I finally fitted my Evotech Duke 390 tail tidy.
My wife cut out the base plate and drilled the holes (mostly straight!) She did her best!
I then spent about 3 hours fiddling, filing and put bevels on the base plate to make it fit. It was not a slick, well engineered effort (like Tom), it was basic stuff with basic tools. But somehow it is done. Thanks Tom for your drawing files. Really appreciate that.
I also had to bend up the number plate to get a decent angle.
I scratched the tail tidy in a few places too because my holes were not precision placed. Anyway, enough excuses - here is the result:

 

[Tom]

Your wife did it?!? Damn, now I'm quite jealous...

 

[blue_monkey]

Hahaha! She did! They have a workshop at her workplace, so she cut out the metal and drilled the holes.

Some pics of the Chinese "version" of the Duke 390 tail tidy together with the Remus exhaust.
As long as the db-killer is built-in, possibly it might also work without a heat shield to protect the indicator.

Here also a pic of the Akrapovic exhaust togeter with the Duke 390 tail tidy; and some pic of the stock exhaust with the 390 tail tidy; with the stock exhaust a heat shield at the indicator is definitely required; otherwise the tip of the indicator gets damaged from the exhaust gases (at high rpms).
