Janinja, bike looks good man..Lets see your front end. I want to see your front turning signal. Did you paint your bottom fairing?

phobos, nice looking bike. if i can give you my opinion, i think you should take the reflectors off. the ones where the engine is, its only one bolt that holds them on, real easy to remove.

Funny you should mention this...Last week I was looking @ webbikeworld and found a company called StreetGlo that makes retroreflective decals for cars and bikes...They make specifically a product meant to be used on black motorcycle frames called "superblack" - it's very black in the day time but at night when light hits it it's supposed to be superbright white so that people can see you. I ordered up a 2-pack of this stuff and it should be in my hands today (I think it actually came yesterday but we didn't check our mailbox)...I'll post pics and a review when I'm done.

Also, I am planning on attempting installation of some Gregg's Customs flushmount signals on my bike (black with clear lens), as well as a Clear Alternatives integrated rear LED setup. We've been talking about this some over at diycycle.info.

These are the closest pics I have to most current. The only difference being that I've added some diamond plate "wings" on the sides of the headlight to cover some wires and hold my turn signals. Those are only temporary, I keep jumping back and forth between just slapping on a bucket headlight and riding it like a standard or repairing the fairings and making it look really nice.
