    I haven't had any issues with my setup, but I don't push my bike too hard either. There has been a few times where I have been pushing into a curve or something and I can feel it flex a little, but nothing scary or anything.

    They're not LED's, standard lights with 6v bulbs thrown in.

    Hey guys, the wrench is just a Biltwell sticker I threw on there. Unfortunately I can't help you on the cdi front Jordan, but the baffle is 4" long made for 1 1/2 pipes. Got it off ebay, and 4" is the max you can go otherwise it will hit that first bend in the header pipe. Still haven't got...

    Thanks man. These required some slight shaving of the sides, but they fit great. New pic from a 150 mile ride last weekend, Bike ran freaking great.

    Swapped out the pipe for this raw steel reverse cone. Also added mx pegs and some chopped down bmx pegs for passenger pegs.

    My cables are all stock except for the braided brake hose. Can't remember the length, I just measured from the caliper up to the new bars and used that.

    I still have decent travel and plenty of clearance. You can cut the spring the same length as the spacers you added, or you can do like me and leave them a half inch longer to add some preload when you put the caps back on. As for the glue, I used good old Super 77 spray adhesive in the can. ;)

    If he cut the springs, then he likely added spacers, which is what actually causes the lowering effect. That's what I did on this bike. No need to do anything to the tubes themselves.

    Nope. They work great.

    Almost positive they're lowered internally. I tried just sliding them up in the trees and the front end was just way too high. Internal is the way to go. I took 3" out of mine.

    From wyhat I understand, the lights get their power direct from the coil, so I don't think a bigger battery would do much. My headlight dims a bit at idle, but is nice and bright while riding. My battery is 1.2 amps. Taillight has a 6v LED bulb in it and is super bright.
