I dunno man I think it looks better with your original headlights.  Maybe a an XBS flyscreen with those or something

Otherwise it looks awesome and that paint is amazing!  :thumb:

Thanks. I liked the other headlights, but they were scary at night - just not bright enough. They were kinda cobbled together...hopefully this setup witll be brighter, I haven't ridden at night yet.

I am very curious.   Why do you do all this stuff on a GS?

What the hell kind of question is that?  A man should be able to do what he wants to a GS!   :bs:   I say more mods!  More custom paint!  I want to see some action out there!  


Anyway, I love the headlight.  Let us know how bright it is at night.  I'm going to get one ordered soon.  

Everything just looks great!

I'll be rollin' around more now Chino. Hit me with an address, we'll catch up one of these days. I may head out to Jenro's one of these weekends coming up too.

Thanks for the compliments guys. I'd be lying if I said I never thought to myself...I could get a bigger faster bike for this cash!!  I like the bike though, it's fast enough to be fun, I've got history with it, it's cheap as hell to maintain and repair, and insure. What's not to like!!? I do get the occasional dude make the rude comment, but 9 times out of 10 that dude rides some big jagoff me too sport bike  that he can't even change the oil on by himself. Even if they don't like the bike, most people can at least appreciate the thought and effort that went into it. And honestly, I don't give a crap if they don't like it. I didn't put it together for THEM to ride. And I kinda like modifying something that most folks wouldn't bother with. I'm building a bracket racer/autocross car out a a Ford Fairmont too. I get the same comments on that project...why?!

LEVO

Take it easy.  My apologies if I offended anyone.  It was an honest question.

i hear ya levo, at some point it becomes silly to spend so much money on such a mediocre bike.  but hey, to each their own.  i probably passed the silly threshold a couple hundred dollars ago too.
