1. Taillight Tuck
2. Dash color change
First: Taillight tuck. sooooooooo easy with the help of others who have posted giving directions and a good how to. i did luckely get a look at the pics before the server change ended the link. Simply take out the light, housing, plastic cover and mounting bracket. then cut back the extender thingy. easier done than said. you open up the rear section and it will be easy to understand, really. i forgot to take a before picture but i'm gonna compare to an old pic i had from last winter.
Before: just look how far the light sticks out!!!!!!
After:
I must say it pulls the whole light in about an inch or so. i simply drummeled the crap out of the brackets to get them off. (the trusty saw-all would have worked too.)
in the picture though, the white paint looking crap on the plastic housing is wax that won't freak'n come off from a earlier wax job!!! anyway.....
SECOND: As some of you know i was one of the few out there with yellow on my cat. i bought the bike years back from a guy who painted the duct covers and huggers bright yellow. till now i have not had the enegery to change this so i simply touched up the yellow every year. untill now. i finally sanded down the yellow and found an "aluminum/silver" color that almost fully matched the frame's color. couple coats of that and couple of clear coat and it was done. the hardest part of this was simply waiting for the paint to dry!!!! needless to say i think it looks slick. i forget who it was out there who has already done this but i thought it looked awesome and took the idea and ran. Thanks!!!!! lolo
BEFORE:
After:
enjoy!!!!!!!!!
