As for HID, I had 35W. I don't know why it was melting the lens. I change them to HALO with projector.

If the wheelchair was not rental, I would of change it to look like my bike haha
Yea, I really think Ill do it in the future, just takes time and money obviously.

Def keep the HIDs.

Nickp - Match the wheelchair to your bike LOL good one

Today, I will have the bike taken to get safety check before taking down to other shop. If they won't issue me a safety check with the integrated tail light, I would have to get battery tray and go back to some other tail light, Or drill hole on the license bracket I made and attach turn signals there. That might not look good though. Wish me luck

LOL, you making fun of my Panda?

I like the look of those projectors, they came out nice. I got my taillight and turn signal combo signed off by CHP.
These are the old signal lights I had but this is how I mounted them by just making a small bracket for them. Took me all of 45 minutes to make from start to finish.

I will look at my bike's rear end and see where I can mount them. I am leaning towards going back to stick out front signal and taking out flush mount one as well. I don't wanna switch around every year to pass safety check. I like Rizoma signals but somehow they don't match with 600rr.

If you were to sell your flushmounts, you could get a lot of money for them now since Watsen discontinued making Honda flushmounts. I don't see why they wouldn't pass though, they are as bright as OEM. Kawasaki get away with fairing flush turnsignals.

Those lights were Barracuda signals, I don't recommend them since the rubber section wore out on me in about a year. Rizoma has a few different styles to choose from.

Your bike is looking good Yum! Nice to see that you're rehab'n the bike too! ;-) Its going to be super-nice.

Hang in there & keep a good Positive Mental Attitude (PMA) toward recovery. Then, get back on the horse & ride!

I didn't know they stop making it. Mine is the first generation one without the bells and whistle you got. Still, I like the way it fit and color is perfect match. They were the best.

Building a bike is a good mental rehabilitation.

BTW, here is a pic of my damaged rim. It's not just bent. It broke
