Don't worry it being "disturbing" to a cage..
I believe that was the intention of BAL to be seen.
Did your's come with the foam cover on the inside of it, or?
When I bought mine, which incidentally was one of the first mods I did, it did not have the stock foam inside covering that the original had so I contacted BAL and they sent me one.

I'm a firm believer in being seen and heard..

I run Hyperlite's brake turn signal combo unit mounted on their license plate bracket. Twas a **** ton cheaper than buying the BAL. Had a similar Hyperlite setup on my 04

Wish I had taken off my BAL before I sold my old bike. Great light. It's on my list of mods when the change jar is filled up...lol.

I put the HD taillights and turn signal that operate as brake lights also on mine. I also put Custom Dynamics 96 led boards in my tour pak lights. I think Stevie Wonder can see me now.

That was the first mod that I made to my RK when I bought it in April. I think it's well worth the money, especially now when the weather gloomy and it gets dark earlier. A tap of my brakes gets the attention of the momos behind me.
