wow I really like the way your bike looks man. those bars look very good on that bike. Just the signals need to move! but you're working on that. the bag looks really good there as well, that was a good idea. It's the little things I guess. Nice work.

Looks cool, but I would definately hack off the rest of the fender struts (as you said you plan on doing). Almost looks like that part of the bike is unfinished, hell I guess it is, why am I posting this???

I relocated it the way slackster and joebotics did. I put it behind the oil bag and bolted a piece of sheet metal to it for protection from road debris. I routed the wire harness up between the oil bag and frame where the tail light wires come through. Try searching for the threads done by slackster and joebotics if you don't get what I'm talking about.
