I did some mods to my bike over the weekend... I know it's not a sportbike, but I like the way everything turned out.

Xtreme Revolutions flush LED turnsignal mount with 5.75 Amber Radiantz LED turnsignals

Back Off Brake Light Modulator

Stebel Air horn (and boy did i piss off some people on the way home that night with it...)

Axle Hub License Plate mount

I also put the JSD-3M (It's a TRE) on the night before and the H4 Super White Head Light (both Made a HUGE difference)

Here you go....

Acting the way I usually act when I'm shaving the beaver...

With my white LED's, they look blue in the pic, but they're white.

You probably get the idea, but heres the right one just in case....

That's Buck one of my friends on my bike after everything was done. He took it for a ride to show me the what the lights look like, But I really think he just wanted to hear my pipes

I finally jumped on the tank debadging bandwagon today also.... and I took some pretty good pics in the sunlight...

The badgeless thing finally grew on me. Took me almost 2 hours to get it perfect with no scratches or glue shadows

You can see the blue headlight if you look close enough...

Next up: 1.5 inch lowering bones, PCIII Install, Custom intakes and Dyno Tune. I should be at 130HP and 122-127 lbs ft at the wheel. Pretty damn decent for an 800lbs cruiser, IMO.

(I still really want a ZX-14.)

:up: looks nice. I really like those turn signals, can hardly see them.

How hard is it to do the LED's? I am thinking I want to put some on the Vstar.

Pretty easy. I just cut and spliced and used my handy pocket soldering iron from radioshack that doesnt make a mess or anything. If you want to keep the stock flash, you'll need a Load equalizer. I bought one, but it flashes twice as fast as stock without it, and anytime I get more light behind me or faster flash is a good thing for idiot cagers, so I didnt use it. (The equalizer)

If someone doesnt make a bracket for your VStar, they are Radiantz Amber 40-Led 5.75" lights, and the come with 3M all weather tape on the back that's pretty sturdy stuff. I have ridden in the rain already and it's holding up fine. If you can find a way to hide the wiring, you could just stick them on the fender.

They are also bright as hell during the day which was important to me also.

amazing customer service and free shipping, and a price match if you can find a better deal with free shipping still. Check his Vstar store, he probably has something like mine.

Very Nice!!! High Five!!! I still say those "light effects" are the Puerto Rican in you coming out. The Zook looks good. Now you need a sportbike to go with it. Sell that useless truck, get a sportbike and a Ridgeline and you'll be set for the big move out here.

LOL A ridgeline! I think i would commit suicide before trading the Lightning in on an Accord with a "trunkbed" or whatever the hell that thing is.

Thanks guys...

(I did think about selling my Lightning, finding a 94-96 bronco with NO payments and getting the 14... but i still couldnt afford the ridiculous insurance on it.)

Maybe when I get out there I can put the 14 on my dad's plan and list me as an additional rider.... I wonder if he'll go for it?:drink:

Sonic kinda reminds me of stewart before he got all skinny and it went to his head. Even riding the cruiser!

BTW- I LOVE ME THE M-109R!!! Nice work

BTW the bike does look good...if I was :gay: enough to go cruiser, I would get an M109.
