I watched that video.  Now I'm waiting for the phone call telling me how long I have to live.

When the phone rings, sing the "Thunder Buddy" song!

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

 [thumbsup] looks great!

what about the 748 tail light?

btw, can you tell me what kind of fork clamps are you using for the headlight (if it doesn't already comes with the vrod light)

thanks!

Thanks!

The 748/916 tail light doesn't do it for me. At least not without the stock tail. But I'm striving for a cleaner, more slender look. We'll see if it works out the way I like.

I use MS21919-DG32 or DG31 clamps from Aircraft Spruce. The only problem with them is that the holes need to be enlarged for the bolts to fit (I do it with my dremel). And a piece of 7075 Aluminium cut down to size and painted. [thumbsup]

Need to take care of a few more things, but it's nearly there.



Almost there!

Had a bit of an oops about a month ago (my fault, too much front brake) with these consequences:








Aside from a few bruises and some road rash I'm OK. Bianca is already fixed up, there's a few scars left, but nothing serious.  [thumbsup]

Oh, and props to the DC Popo for the zip ties! [clap]
