I went the opposite direction and used short caps off a Sportster 48 to make my tubes look longer.

That seat looks badass and comfy!

I just want to get the bike back on the road. I'll get back to some stuff later.

love your bike!

Welcome to the beginning of my cheap driving light project.

I'm using Dyna Glide highway peg mounts as a place to put the light mounts. Found on Ebay $18.00 delivered.



The lamps are Lylla LED with Cree U5 emitters, 10 watt, 1000 lumen. bought from Amazon $26.99 a pair delivered.

Amazon Amazon



The actual light mounts will be aluminum round stock spun out on my lathe with a recess where the lamp clamp goes for a clean look. electrical stuff comes out of the collection.
I would like to use this switch but I will decide later after I see how this project looks in mockup...
