good eye kamikazi, i didnt even see them there for a minute.
jersey: what are approximate costs on DIY CF? and what advice could you give me, i want to do my triple tree and gauges, and maybe a few other places, but have been told it is expensive. although they never came back to tell me why once i asked.

switches are for neons, strobes, and arming Nos...(i never used the nos and took the bottle off when i got the bike)
The resin cost's about 50-60 $ per gallon and the cf cost depends on where you get it...you can try here
Carbcom to make flat panels lay a few peices on glass and soak in resin....
to laminate a peice use spray glue to glue fabric in place....paint resin on (few layers) sand all the way to 600 then polish and clearcoat...
