Yup, Arlen Ness "angled" fender extension. Fits better than OEM IMHO. Real easy install, and CD LED tri-bar light fits like a glove. Mounts the same as OEM light. Actually CD came out with an updated design recently that hooks up like OEM light and doesn't require an extra wiring harness you may have seen on youtube videos.

been struggling with my air ride due to solenoid valve failing. Ran across a post on amazon that says removal of the nut seemed to fix the problem. As retarded as that sounded, it worked! I removed the nut from the 12v solenoid and fashioned some electircal tape on it to hold the 12v power to the aluminum valve body and all of the sudden, it doesn't leak anymore. I also added a tank as I wanted to speed up the up time when necessary. That part I like a lot! Will post video on YouTube and add a link later.

I have this style of valve:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/12V-DC-1-4-2...YAAOSwstxVJIPg - didnt buy it on eBay but it was what was sent with the kit.

Anyway, I'll be looking for a replacement in this style with brass valve body to replace it and have as a backup:

No idea why these just randomly stop holding air all of the sudden... what a PITA!

With the Ness fender extension would you still have room to install the CD Plasma Rods between the fascia and the bags?

Decided to get rid of red reflectors on saddlebag latches. On a black and chrome ride, my eye kept being drawn to the red. More likely after read it here then started noticing. Found clear reflectors on Amazon...much better.

Xotic Air Remote Air installed! System was an add on to the Xotic Air Shocks I already had on the bike. Added tank and remote receiver and re-wired the system to draw air from tank to the shocks vs direct to shocks from compressor. Hopefully the solenoid update I added fixes the issues with the system failing or sticking open and losing air. Fun to watch...
