Thanks everyone. Work my tail off for a year building almost all custom parts and did my own powder coating
What type of mounts did you use on your forward signals? I like yours better than the bolt on brackets.

Not much. Got the new replacement upper shock chrome cover to replace this cracked one. Probably going to install it tonight.

Re-installed the Kuryakyn Velociraptor intake but this time used Lowbrow Customs breather bolts. I can say it made a difference.

Looks nice. I considered the breather bolt route. Are you getting any condensation out the breather bolts?

Changed the tires. Sorry, no pics. A boring operation anyway.

I would like to use this switch but I will decide later after I see how this project looks in mockup...

This was a bad idea... Lamps returned, the foot peg mounts now live on the "think before you buy" shelf. The original concept is scrapped.
The lighting project lives on... The police switch is still in play but will be used for controlling a separate fused "key on" harness. This will allow for future circuits should the need arise, no modifications to the existing harness.
Details on what the new system will look like...

Your not worried about venting directly thru the bolt face?


Where does oil mist from a hard ride go?
