and the thing on the handlebars is just an analog clock velcro'd to the handlebars. I use my phone for speedo mounted under the stock rpm/fuel and indicator housing. Thats all sitting on my work bench waiting for some inspiration... I hate the stock look. I hot glued a piece of plexiglass in the housing and surprisingly my touch screen works through it which is pretty cool albeit distracting when riding.

As for the headlights as I said just el cheapo auto zone lights w the lower mounted inside the stock speedo housing.

The more I look at that headlight setup the more I like it. I think a black housing on the stock lighit or a chome housing on the autozone light would do wonders to bring it all together. That and maybe some fab'd cover to hide the mount and wires and you would really have something. Picturing something like Harley has been doing in their recent models.

That's a really sharp looking ride all around.

You need to do something about that brake lever pivot bolt...

 

[jstone8952]

yeah that is already fixed. it was a temporary patch between trips to auto zone. good eye weasel.

I like the look your going for.

where'd you get the bar ends? look different than most cheapo ebay options.
