Ditched My Lindby bar and added FBI Jac Knife highway pegs.
Also fabed a new plate mount out of scrap piece of lexan lays a little closer to the fender.

Nice mods. Nice color bike. You have rear bullet turn signals and turn signals on your bags? What air intake is that?

Yes I added the turn signals to my bags because my riding friends were complaining that the bullets were hard to see. they are semi trailer marker lights.
cost me about $40 total. I had to disassemble the lights and solder all the fittings to make them reliable. The low profile Panacea Brake light was also hard to see so I wired the bullets and bag lights to light up with the brake light as well.
I hard wired it in did not use a module and it works great.
I did also have to add a resistor to the left and right turn signal circuit because of the LED's low draw this increases the amperage so the flasher thinks a regular bulb is still there. Without it you get the rapid burnt out bulb flash.

The air cleaner is a HD SE stage1 I found the ACE Maltese Cross Cover on Ebay,
the mesh around the filter I fabricated from plastic gutter screen.
