Default 15 Slim Lights question

Hey Guys,

I picked up a 15 slim a few weeks back and am trying to figure out what all was changed out. I am curious if these are the factory Front/Rear lights or not?








Thanks
Josh

The lens is not factory...

I installed smoked lens in mine... but this is the shape of the stock lens. Red in the back, amber in the front.

Not the stock exhaust
Not the stock air cleaner
Not the stock oil dipstick
Not the stock tire valve covers

that is all that I could identify from from photos...

^ Good eye!

I knew exhaust, oil dipstick, Valve stem caps (gone already haha).

Intake I wasn't sure on, cover look stock but backing plate is different.

Also found it had an LED headlight, Vance and Hines FP3 after I got it home.

It must be based on each individual... I did a 1000 mile ride on the stock seat with no issues... love how the stock seat looks as well.

When I had the 48 on the other hand...kept sliding off the seat each time I took off...that seat did not last long on the bike...

If they are glass the light lenses look like the old school Auto-Gem Bullseye Lenses that I have.

It is the stock seat, rode it 200+ miles home fairly comfortable (Just had back surgery 3 months ago so I'm not exactly comfortable in general) I am looking at a Corbin seat though but love the clean look of the stock seat.

I was able to verify they are the Auto-Gem bulls eye lenses, love the look of them but hate the amber fronts so Im going to order a set of the smoked ones for the front.

Also found it has a Screaming eagle intake backing plate with a K and N oiless filter. I think I've discovered/identified most of the changes on the bike now.

I chose the smoked front lenses with amber bulbs also as I didn't like the look of amber in the front.

Have you taken a look at the Danny Gray Buttcrack Solo seat? Much more comfortable than the stock seat and a very simple, clean design.

Headlight trim ring isn't stock either.
