+1 on the badge idea. What was the "original" purpose of the hole?JRK5892 said:Now we are thinking! that is actually a great idea!!!!!
JRK5892 said:headlight is a blend of a stock set up for the guages, and a fighter headlight. belly pans are STUPID $$$$ so unless i can come up wiht a el-cheepo mod for that i am not going to run it
here is the headlight that i am going to use... i cut and shaped it to move it 1 inch closer to it and 1 inch down... that was as tight as i could get it, and keep the stock guages
i know this is not for everyone... but i got to be honest, i FN love it, so does my brother so that is what we are going with, it is completely different than anyting on any of the bikes around here.

Looking very tidy though bud
JRK5892 said:oooh i agree! 100% with you, but i am not going to drop any $ into this. so far all in all i have just over $200 into the whole build... EVERYTHING including bike.... i want to keep the stock guage set up so i do not have to fork the coin for a custom guage pod and use a dif headlight... so i tucked it in as close as i can get it and use the stock guages and that is how she will be... got a few G's i am sinking into my HD motor so i have to keep the $ spending to a low... or the wife will have me buying all sorts of crap for her bikes ha ha ha most people worry about their wives finding out they spent money on the bike, i am worried that mine will find out i am spending more on mine than hers! ha ha ha
JRK5892 said:air intake to cool the motor down under the fairings, my brother thinks i should go get a vent scoop like they put on boats and put that on there
something like this they are about 1.5 inches by 1.5 inches or look into a cowl vent
