Some new mods (pics)
Thought i put up some pictures or the work in progress.
I painted the lowers with epoxy paint ( thanks for the write up joe)
Fork boots/ Gaitors
Old school style grips
7 1/2" headlight
put on a 110/90 19 avon venon ( i realllllly like the looks of it well untill i seen the dam 150 front someone put on lol)
Moved the horn under the battery box
Didi the run turn brake mod ( i think that should be a factory item for getting seen better imo)
put on some frame mount driving lights.
Soon as my lazy butt gets done painting the fairing and flh bags they will go on :-)
I really like my fairing and bags ( they do go on and off easy) but im really liking the bike the way it sits lol

Thanks for the compliments
The frame mounted lights are a 39mm p-clamp and a set of 55 watt adjure driving lights . kuryakan makes a set that are about 300 bills . i have about 150 in mine all together. THe p-clamps were 20 bucks and the driving lights were 130ish . I could have went with a cheaper driving light but i like the one i got. the wiring was simple , i ran the wires from bothe light together then ran them up beside the clutch cable and spliced in the the low beam wire then hooked the ground up to the headlight ground wire. I did pop the 15 amp fuse so i put in a 20 and everything is fine . I wouldn't go anymore than the 20amp
The kuryakan frame mount like come with a 39mm clamp so if you ever want to put them on a 49mm fork tube you cant without buying new lights. with the way i did mine all i have to do i buy new clamps for 20bucks and reroute some wires. :-)
I can take the faring on and off in less than 5 minutes ish . I used quick detach windshield brackets. As for the cutting of the wind theres nothing like a faring, they work great . I been riding mine without it a bit and kinda miss the wind break lol. I can ride ( with my faring) with out my helmet buckled and it doesnt move with out the fairing i have it buckled and it want to pull up

Cant really say how they help at night i haven't got a chance to take it out and see yet but i have noticed when a bike is coming towards me that has running/driving lights mounted lower than the headlight ( i read somewhere someone described it as a big triangle) it seems to stand out a bit to oncoming traffic. I mostly wanted them to light up the sides of the road a bit when low beams are on.
