this is what was done to mine. Don't ask where it came from as it was that way when i bought it. The black surround is some flexible ABS.

That is pretty cool. I like that gives us a different option.

yea, luv it too,, if there was a blanker ,pre made for the hole, we could do our own mods,,or i could buy a second hand light plaster-cast it and fibreglass one, just a bloody long job.
i should have thought of this at the start of the winter,not the start of the summer.

I can remove it later this week and get some pics and measurements with it out if that would help anyone. I havent even looked to see how it is attached yet.

cheers,that would be handy.
i'v been also looking at l.e.d. units online for ideas of making a mod,to include strobe for a hazzard function.
and i'v 2 spare indicators that for my nonfango rack i was thinkin of fitting with pace car strobes instead of bulbs for a somilar hazzard function... and i may make that 4 strobe hazzards with a couple of flush clear (car)indicators incorporated into the front fairing.
just a bunch of ideas i'm tackling. lol
