Mesh, Watsen turn signals, & FE fix

I finally got around to doing the meshing on my fairings and here they are. It was a lot easier than I thought. Just got some aluminum mesh from Home Depot that they use for stove overhead fan filters. Cut them to shape with scissors and mounted them to my fairings with a hot glue gun, and then used epoxy to ensure they would stay on and resist any heat.

I also got my Watsen turn signals which look super-tricked out http://www.watsendesign.com

They were simple bolt-ons and I had to use the resistors provided so that they'd actually blink and not just look like they were on the whole time.

And finally I fixed my plate light so it shines directly onto my plate. I had bolt lights before that came out of the plate and shined forward. I had to use these metal tabs to reflect the light downwards. To fix the problem, I made a little metal tab and bolted onto my reflector bracket. Then I used the same bolt light and mounted it onto the homemade tab.

So this is what my bike looks like thus far:

Thats nice. Love the turns. Very unique!!!! Nice bike man!!!

Thx

i like the kiddy sheets in the mesh shots.....very masculine

Hahaha, ya like that huh? I needed something to cover my floor so I wouldn't scratch them, or my fairings, while I did the install and that was the first thing I found.

Nice lookin bike. I really like those signals. Id take off those orange reflectors in the front and the red ones in the back. Give it a more clean look.

I dont know, you need some safety on the side, especially on a black bike, and for sure at night. I may look cleaner, but I likethe idea of them being there (maybe a different color possibly)

Yup, that's why I kept them on. I considered takin' them off, but I do a lot of night riding so I wanted that extra precaution. Plus, like I said, the rear reflector bracket holds my plate light. If I keep one, I gotta keep the other.
