Default Almost ready for spring!

So I did some work to the bike this weekend. So far this winter I have done, LED in the engine, Hotbodies undertail with a customled.com 1.85" led board retrofit, hotbodies flush mounts, Mirrors with signals and a tire hugger. The last thing i have is red reflective wheel tape but i have to wait for warm weather for that. Here is some pics and vids. The lights kind of wash out but believe me they are soooooo much brighter than stock.

the flush mounts or tail? The tail lights aren't the stock hotbodies. the flush mounts are alright for brightness and the signal mirrors help out immensely.

Looking good! I'm in the same boat and just finished my hotbodies front flush mounts and rim tape. Still have to paint my Pimpbodies Undertail and replace the rear blinkers but should have that done soon.


Without flash rim tape

After Flash, almost like a Tron light cycle!

hey Gint: where in NY are you? What kind of hugger is that? Is it a chain guard as well? Do you have any other pics of it? I'm thinking of putting one on my F4

Thanks

I love the brightness of the new LEDS. How hard was the installation? Is it basically plug and play?

Insted of sprucing up the bike with aftermarket updates, why do you not get rid of that chicken stripe??
