Haha yeah I was going for a AMF kinda vibe (I'm an all-inclusive moto-lover).

Those are the mounts for the panniers.

Really cool. Hepco Becker panniers, it looks like. Can you mount the panniers with the mini rear turn signals in the original location? If they were stock, I think you'd have to move the signals.

Again, really cool look.

Very nice CB1100! The black paint scheme really makes it look different.

They're actually from SW Motech. No the mounts come with a signal relocation kit to the license plate area on the stock fender. I guess the tail light area is made differently on whatever model year the kit was made for so it doesn't really fit. I'm still trying to sort out the best way to do this since the panniers cover the signals and tail light from the side. I'm might just slap some reflective tape on the side of the panniers and call it a day.
