 First few mods
#1

Let me start by saying that this is a wonder machine...totally worthy of going into space on the next Elon Musk's SpaceX flight Big Grin OR to be considered as MESSI of motorcycles Worship

To push the coolness factor up a bit I made a few minor changes. Nothing outlandish just some subtle tweeks

1. Short round black aluminum side mirrors - they are really short but I am not tall either Thumbs Up . I did not want to stray away from the retro round look of the mirrors. [url=https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01NBOUP0Z?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_pd_title]Link


2. LED headligh bulb - good bright light and good fit. So far happy but need some more night miles on road to be fully sure. [url=https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07DGTTTKN?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_pd_title]Link

3. Black clutch and brake levers - they are on their way so this one is not yet applied

Overall am very pleased with the bike! Pics posted here :

I'm interested to see the light pattern on the road. I have been wanting to do an LED swap on my 13, but the replacement bulbs usually throw out a really bad pattern and its usually spread out too much and blinding oncoming traffic.
If these have a good pattern, you may have found me my next headlight.

It needs RLETs. Even with new levers.

Cormanus, can you see the pics? When I click on his link (on my iPad) it goes to photos.google.com and says “you’re missing out” and wants me to install a Google photo app.
