Fender Eliminator

Wow, looks perfect! Is the baseplate in the first picture the only modification you had to do?
 
Again hi Yonsson,
I deleted my last post as the information about the angle of the arm was wrong.
Today I checked the measurements and dimensions again and the angle of the arm is fine!
According to information from Evotech, the license plate of the Duke 390 tail tidy should be 40 degrees.
I measured it and it was only about 36 degrees.
So I assumed that the angle of the arm wasn't quite right.
I have now checked all dimensions again and it appears that the angle of the license plate holder plate supplied differs from the information provided by Evotech.
I have now mounted the arm with the baseplate without making any changes to the arm and will just adjust the license plate holder plate so that the license plate can be mounted at an approximately 45 degree angle.

Here some pics from today with the final baseplate made from 3mm aluminum.

Damn, that looks superb! Thanks for sharing!
I would definitely be interested to buy a baseplate from you if you plan to make more of them. I don’t have the tools to make anything near that good myself.

Agree! I'm also very pleased with the result!

I don't plan to fabricate any parts to sell them; developing and fabricating parts like this is just a hobby (that I love); when I find time for it...

Here another pic:

Here a pic from a web-find video; why the angle of the license plate needs to be adjusted to at least 45 degrees...

I would remote the stock rear fender and install one of these carbon fiber fender eliminators thats also a plate flipper all in one. Have a look at: 007Plate.com

I've had it on 3 or 4 of my bikes now and it's awesome.
Looks nice and it's easy to install too. Just one center bolt mounts the gadget to the motorcycle, and just connect 2 wires to the battery.
PS it actually usually takes longer to remove the stock rear fender than it takes to install it this thing

Now with a lightweight, black coated aluminum composite panel instead of the raw aluminum plate to support the license plate; and with some added black stainless steel nuts…

For now this little „tail tidy project“ is completed to me; and I'am quite happy with the result!

Still needs an arm to be mounted to, or the plate will be directly above the rear wheel.
 
Back from another 300km daytrip.
This time also some kilometers on the highway.
Nutella... Damn!
Shorter turn signals are necessary!
