Hey guys,

Thought you might like to see this little upgrade. $6.39 at the hardware store and a little drying time.

FUNKTRON,
what bar end mirrors are those? Did you have to move anything to put them on, are you running bar end weights with the bar end mirrors? Also what did you do with your turn signals up front. That looks tight with the mirrors removed.

Those are crg mirrors. I have the same setup. You can buy some plates from american sport bike when you remove the stock mirrors. For front turn signals I replaced the bulbs at the very outside of the headlights with amber leds. Just wired up the turn signal wires to them and there ya go. They are just small running lights anyway. I agree the bike does look much better without the stock mirrors. Not hard at all to do either.

What bulbs, or what do I need to look at on the bulbs to get the right amber bulb?

Those flames painted on or stick on? I like the look!

Yep, just a ghost flame sticker set off ebay. Cut it all up and make your own type of kit.
