I just picked up some shiney new bits from the powdercoat man





and some parts from the anodizing man





shipped off the fork bits to Eric at Clubhouse Motorsports for some new internals.

Nate (DucPainter) is refreshing my plastics.  Now if I can put all the pieces back in the right places! cheeky

Sweet.   waytogo

Damn!  More mod ideas.  bang head

Can't wait to see the pics when all that gets mounted.  It may have been done but I don't recall seeing it.  So if there's no pix, it didn't happen.  Grin

Charlief,
If I'm not mistaken I think I see grills off a set of Hella Supertone Horns in that first pic.  I just ordered a set of those myself.  How did you mount them?  Any issues I may run into?
TIA

you are correct on the horns. I have a twin headlight setup. I have one horn in the stock location and the other directly under the headlights.  Mounted it right above the lower triple.

As far as wiring I used the stock pos and neg wiring with a relay. The pos wire is the trigger for the relay. The power was wired directly to the battery ( with a fuse)
