{"product_id":"bsa-bantam-tail-tidy","title":"BSA Bantam Tail Tidy","description":"\u003cp\u003eWe said it about the Gold Star and we'll say it about the Bantam, BSA nailed the front half and then got shy at the back. That long plastic hanger of a tail light and the plate sitting out in the breeze undo a bike that's otherwise got its proportions bang on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TEC Tail Tidy Kit for the Bantam 350 sorts it. Shortens the rear, tucks the plate in where it belongs, and lets that rear mudguard actually finish the line instead of fighting it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitting is the easy bit.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo drilling. No cutting. No rewiring. It mounts to the original hard points, plugs straight into the factory loom, and it's fully reversible, so nothing you do here is permanent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLaser-cut alloy and stainless steel, not stamped tin. The finish and the fit are the whole reason people keep coming back to TEC for these.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnd it looks factory.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe design brief was to make something that reads like BSA should have made it in the first place and it lands. Several owners reckon you'd struggle to pick it as aftermarket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop tips from the people who've fitted one:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConnect the wiring before final assembly, and don't fully torque anything down until the plate and indicators are lined up. Watch the fitting video first and it's a comfortable afternoon with a couple of hex keys and a 10mm spanner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWorth knowing:\u003c\/strong\u003e as with the Gold Star version, check your accessories before ordering — this has been designed around the standard rear end, not the official BSA rail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBest cosmetic money you'll spend on a Bantam. Link in bio. 🧡\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLet me know in the comments — Bantam owners, is the stock rear end as much of a letdown as we reckon?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeads up: the TEC Bantam page you added is still processing, so I've left out the price, review count and exact alloy\/design-registration figures rather than guess them.
