Default Rocker Update

Just finished installing rear fender (chopped), license plate (top down, custom chrome and radiantz) side mount, relocated front blinkers, added mirrors and shift linkage.

Im slow and didnt want to spend the $ on a high dollar side license plate so got some components and slapped them together for under $80 if anyone wants more info just let me know.

Nothing special on the rear fender chop (unlike Joe Whats - which is shweet) in the future will get some stuff airbrushed.

Picked up flame mirrors and shift linkage both for under $60. Next project will be 16" z bars along with 1" (hoping it doesnt collide into the tank) risers, sounds big but by the time they travel all the way up from the triple trees Im looking at just a few inches higher than stock.


Relocated front blinkers using Kuryakyn clamps 49mm

Flame mirrors (slightly degrades functionality...considering removal)

Flame shift linkage

Side license plate mount

License plate with the LED's glowing on the plate

Top Down - Axle kit
Custom Chrome- chrome bracket (i think for turn signals) cut, welded and drilled
Radiantz plate frame w/LED's
