so winters been good to me so far. It's nice to have a chance to fix everything up so my wife and i won't be sharing a road rashed bike held together by zip-ties.
So i slapped on the bar ends and spools that came with the shogun kit. Pics below of size comparison to stock. Ugly but i guess they work.
Didn't get a chance to put the slider brackets on as my brand new torque wrench wudnt work so thats been returned and i've got a jet one on the way instead.
So i ordered some leds yesterday and they were shipped today!so i've got a Couple weeks for me to figure out how i'm going to make signals out of them.
My unsuspecting fairing feeling all beautiful and ready for paint has no idea it's about to go under the knife again.

yea boi! Looking great! I really dig that matte finish.... I think I want to paint my bike matte black with gloss red highlights.... Like, almost straight out of the 80's....

yah i've thot about it. But the wife hates matte finish stuff. Reminds her of ricers that can't afford a paint job on their body kits.
I'm planning on doing a knock off of the red and black special ed but with orange.
That fairing is just in the primer but after i slapped one on the bike i thot it'd be sweet with a satin black tank.

Ahhh, the benefits of a heated garage. That fairing looks like new! Nice work. Where did you order your LEDs from?

 

[mksiemens]

haha the garage isn't heated. Just have a little heater i put in there while im working.
I actually set up a paint room in our unfinished basement cus then i don't have to worry about overspray getting on the car or my tools and it's warm enuf (barely) to paint down there. I need to hook up some more heat tho cus it's good for primer but i want it to be warmer for painting when that time comes in feb/march
I got the leds from spoophs ebay man alaya-male

 

[mksiemens]

so the leds and resistors have arrived.
I'm hoping i can get a change to hook it up tomorrow but we'll see
I'm stoked
The these are bright!
