No cables on the brakes. You are correct.

Is it illegal to flash your headlight as a means of communication in the US?

Over here, it is the accepted method of letting someone know that it's okay to pull out or cross your path. Mind you, that's why the popular "Headlamp Modulators" are not a hit in the UK. There'd be too many misinterpretations

Some bikes have them over here. My brother's 2007 GSXR750 has one, it was pretty odd to see it on his bike when he brought it home. There is no accepted method of headlight flashing over here, as people do it for many things: If an oncoming car thinks your brights are on, they'll flash you. Some people will flash you if there is a cop up ahead on the road. If you forget to turn your headlights on, someone will flash you. Sometimes I'll flash cars on my bike just to get their attention to make sure they see me. You get the point - a passing button in the states is pretty much an attention button lol.

Before I put my exhaust back on (for inspection), cell phone pic w/flash to show the wheel pinstripes well. 6k hid's, corbin seat, zero grav smoked windscreen, red neons thru out, erion racing exhaust (black, not pictured, also smoked flushmounts put on yesterday). Future: fender eliminator, hard tonneau cover, possible black tail conversion, and new mirrors. Also want to powdercoat any silver parts black.
