If you’ve ever looked at your bike from the side and thought “that could be so much cleaner”, you’re not alone. A Tail Tidy (also known as a fender eliminator) is one of the quickest upgrades to update and modernise the bike, reduce visual clutter, and give the rear a cleaner, more aggressive profile.
At Fender Eliminators Australia, we stock model specific kits that are designed to fit properly, look intentional once installed, and keep your lighting setup looking good (whether you want to keep OEM indicators or go full integrated LED).
Why riders choose a tail tidy
A tail tidy removes the bulky factory number plate fender and replaces it with a compact bracket system that tucks the plate up closer to the tail.
Typical results people want:
- A cleaner rear profile and sharper line
- Better looking indicator placement
- A “finished” look that matches the rest of your bike’s styling

FAQ: Tail tidy fitment, plug and play, and indicators
Are your kits plug and play?
Many are, especially newer model integrated kits where the wiring is designed to connect cleanly without cutting or modification. Always check the product description for plug and play notes and included connectors.
Can I use my factory turn signals with a tail tidy?
On Motodynamic kits and a range of model specific brackets, yes. Some bikes need an adapter or a specific variant designed for OEM signals, so we recommend matching the exact option listed on the product page.
How much does a tail tidy change the look of the bike?
A lot. It removes the long stock fender and cleans up the rear so the tail lines look shorter, sharper, and more “racey". It’s one of the best value mods if you care about the bike’s looks.
If I buy a kit with one signal setup, can I change my signals later?
Usually yes, but it depends on the bracket design and spacing:
- If the kit supports OEM and aftermarket fitment, swaps are straightforward.
- If the kit is fully integrated, you can still change later, but you’ll likely be changing the whole lighting solution rather than only the indicators.
If you tell us your bike model and what signal style you want long term, we can point you to the most flexible option.
Do I need a relay or resistor for LED indicators?
Some bikes will hyperflash when switching to LEDs. Many integrated kits are designed to avoid extra modules, but if your bike is sensitive, you may need a relay or resistors. The product page notes usually call this out.
