What do you think of these MODS?!

1. Smoked the stock signals.


2. Painted windshield. Inside only - Keeping the outside glossy.


3. Cut Rear Fender - I need to remove the whole thing...


4. Hand watch strapped onto handlebars.


5. Tank Protector.


6. 8 Blue LED lights throughout my bike. - looks badass at night, no good photos tho

7. Took every bolt off the outside of the body and paited black. ( to match bike)

8. Full Synthetic Oil Change!

Ideas? I'd love some solid input!

looks good...how bout ditching that shiny stock exhaust, or at least paint it flat black for now. You can get that engine enamel spray paint thats good up to like 500 degrees or something.

I was just thinking that in my head haha. I want to get the Hot bodies Growler exhaust. It's only like $275 at my local cycle gear, and it sounds awesome!!

I like the smoked signals. Mind sharing how you pulled that off? Smoked color spray I presume?

I took off the plastic around the stock turn signals. With electrical tape i cover all of the reflective material INSIDE the signal with tape, everything but the bulb. Then before i put the plastic back on, i taped 1 very tight line of tape along the lip of the white plastic - then cut any extra tape off before you screw it back on. You want to make sure the tape is on there tight, maybe even do 2 layers. I have had to redo it because the sides were slowly slipping away from the edge. Pic will be attached. Enjoy looks wayyyyy better

Nope, just put it to the tightest fit. Works great, and one of the 3 buttons is a light, very visible at night and easy to find the button.

I think they are very basic mods, although some aren't really mode at all, eg., oil change, watch strap, tank protector

I thought the "watch strap mod" was an attempt at humor. Guess not.

Edit to add: I do like the smoked signals...plus your bike is black, exactly how they were meant to be

Black is sexyyy. And yes, the watch was thrown in for humor.
