    Can anyone recommend or direct me to a quality plug n play tail tidy. I have a 2018 model. Cannot find anything that looks remotely promising.
    When i say plug n play, i do not ideally want to cut into the existing wiring loom

    Thanks. Unfortunately it's illegal to not have separate indicators here in the UK. Have ordered the DRC Edge 2 kit and will just have to cut into the existing wires.

    Update. The DRC Edge 2 is an easy fit and appears a quality item.

    Thanks. Looks great. I pick my new black crf up on Friday. Already got parts at home lined up to fit.....handguards, sump protector from ad-trek, rack and luggage.

    The stock tail end looks dreadful.

    Like the look of yours. Was it just plug and go ?

    Not exactly but very close. You can buy an adaptor or like me cut and resolder 3 wires......it's so easy so don't be put off by the idea. Here's another piccie with a smaller license plate...enjoy the bike.

    I got around to fitting the Edge 2 yesterday. As you said, it is easy enough. The firing and fitting were easy. Getting the indicator rubber mounting grommets out of the OEM tail unit was a pain.

    All good and it really smarten up the back end.

    Good job. It's so much better than stock. Mine's been on a year and performs flawlessly. Enjoy your ride...

    It looks really good. I’m considering the modification. Did you buy from eBay? What size number plate did you get. My plate is too big.

    I put on a 8x 6 from memory? It's a little small so might attract some unwanted a
    but no problem thus far and it fits the size of the bike...

    Cheers

    Yes, eBay is your friend.
