So, after my lowide which f--ed up the turn signals, I opted to go for the sleek and sexy look  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
I installed flush mount turn signals in the front, and an integrated LED taillight in the back, along with major fenderectomy.

FYI, I'm not putting these up for flaming regarding turns signals, etc.   :flipoff:
Just wanted to share pics of my bike.  :cheers:

I don't really care for the clear lense for the brake. :dunno_white:

I think there's not enough color on your bike.  It's just black and silver now...  But that's my opinion

Nice bike ,and I know you didn't ask but I think it would look much better if you smoke the tail lens.
Like I said very nice bike  :thumb:

Even if the voices aren't real they have some good ideas.

Don't get him hooked on tail lens smoking. It will stunt his growth and make him have weird babies. Like reefer will, you know.  :o  :laugh:  He needs to get hooked on fishing or something else. Ask Pandy, she's a CCPC addict now.  ;)

I like the look well enough. It seems to me you made lemon aide out of a lemon situation. Good recovery.  :thumb:

I'm child of the 70's and saw the movie "Reefer Madness" too. Everything they said then was true. Look around at all the weirdos today.  Geez, tail lens smoking! That's just desperate.  Better to huff E85 exhaust IMHO.

<thread jack> BTW Pandy, I took your "pusher" out dancing tonight. We learned a new rhumba step...mostly. <end jack>

Looks good, I need to "fix" my turn signals too. Actually they aren't even required in WA hmm....... maybee I'll "fix" them now and then put some cool ones on it when I get arround to it.  O0 :thumb:

that's probably the best looking (faired) GS I've seen..... very nice   O0 :thumb:

I'm not huge on color on my bike, I don't like the extra attention it gets.
though I wear red gear, so....  :dunno_white:

They get semi bright, though I would like them a bit brighter, so I might add more LEDs.
I think it's legal, as long as the actual brake light is red and the turn signals are red or amber.

I am not familiar with taillight smoking either  :laugh:

and to quote my girl:
"when life gives you lemons, give them back and say, I want chocolate!"  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

looks nice i really like the black and silver. Might look good with smoked tail but i do like the clear a lot matches the front signals and is a nice contrast to the dark colors.  :thumb:

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?
