Next time I'm going to use an automotive urethane color coat and 2-part clear, because the lacquer, although nice looking, is not anywhere near as durable as urethane. Here's the little Ninja:

Very cool, I may try that on the aftermarket fairing mine has and see how it looks, thanks for the info!

Another thing you may consider (that I still haven't gotten around to) is putting extra lights in the empty tail sides. The holes etc are there, but there are no lights. Depending on the MN laws, you may even be able to wire them up as blinkers (CA requires a certain distance between them).
You're probably also going to need a license plate.  |
Haha yes Im getting a plate tomorrow, that headlight fairing actually does have LEDs in it for the blinker, I'll put some pictures in when I have time. There is now distance law for the turn signals here fortunately. I may do that strip idea if I switch headlights, thanks for sharing!
