Ok, so I decided to keep my bike a while longer. To give it that little “x” factor, I decided that it would be worth spending a little money and time tricking it out a little. just a little mind you. My plans are pipe, windscreen, mirrors and lights. I’d love to do a dual round headlight too (like a bi-moto) but inside behind the housing inside (similar looking how the headlights of a Sprint ST look). Ok, so more than a little, but to start, just a few (low hanging fruit).

Rear light, signals and fender.

I went with an LED integrated rear light and turn signal unit (60-ish off eBay). Of course this meant I could remove the existing turn signals and then had the fender to mod. I cut away a fair amount and remove a bit under the tail. I have some plastic that I cut a plate and both glue and screwed into place underneath.

Front Turn Signals
The second mod was removing the front turn signals. Originally, I was going to get a pair similar to what a street triple has, but then the back wouldn’t look quite right (would want to have the matching pair I think). So, I went with the flush mount lights from Cycle Gear. Not as spacy looking, but it’s night not having those stalks sticking out there.

So, anyway
That’s it so far. When I get the cash, a Two Bros Titanium slip on (loses 18 pounds and even ups the power a little bit). And, as mentioned, would love to do something to the headlight. I may also get a tank protector as you can see the wear on the tank from my pants. And if I get too much money than I know what to do with, maybe some new wheels even :-D
