Might keep a bit of crap off the shock, won't help the back of you at all, tea tray doesn't make a huge difference either.

I'd get a specialist to look at your tail, people as a rule don't have them. Must make buying bike gear a problem.

Can't help with the mud spray other than saying don't happen to me :spin:

I have a tail chop and a large rear hugger and it's just fine. Not much mud and certainly none on me.

Believe it or not I have actually seen this regularly on my way to work when I was working in China.

Great answer!

I don't get this problem because

a/ the solo does't get ridden in winter... well... not at all to be honest :o

b/ the trike sprays mud & crap at other people but I dont get any :thumbsup:
