    BTW, I think they may have been correct. It does appear that BLACK is indeed the FASTEST color. R.O.R...R.I.P.M

      Nice work. The previous owner did it for me and I didn't even notice until I got the bike home. 2 questions:
      1. Where did you get the tag light from?
      2. How did you mount the tag. Because my plastics were missing fairing bolts I zip-tied the tag but once I get the proper fairing bolts then I will have to find another way to mount.
      1. I got the tag light from a multi-store who sells car accessory, bikes, hobby equipment and so on. It was in the boat equipment section actually.

      2. Tag is mounted wit two L-brackets up into the existing holes in the undertray. These two bolts also hold the rear fairing in place.
      It is real sturdy but I'm not quite happy with the "industrial" look from underneath, I might paint them black or something in the future.
      All I do rigt now is ride

            nice job. when i did mine i got some brackets from lowe's and made my own stuff to work. i'm looking for the turn signals i used. they look really nice. carbon fiber, a buddy of mine of mine was like nice work on the brackets and the signals. looked sweet! btw, where did you get the LED light for yours. i couldn't find one that i liked or would work so i ended up using the stock bulb and drilled a hold just above the plate.

            finally, didn't think it was going to be that hard. these are the ones i used but instead of the clear i was able to get them in iridium. they are so sweet! however, the cleat is pretty cool too!

              i am loving it.. but you can mount the factory turnsignals in such a way that they an still be used and will show right to the sides of tag.

                yeah you can, When i did mine, i used L-brackets from a hardware store. They have 2 sets of wholes in them, I used 1 set of wholes to screw brackets into exhisitng fairing holes, Made the other 2 wholes big enough for the screw portion of the stalks to go in. Then bolted the stalk from behind. L- brackets are great and very inexpensive for this mod. Used a total of 4 bracket 2 per side. 1 set holds the tag, the other turned sideways hold the signals. All screwed into the same sets of fairing wholes. Good luck, I'll try to get pics if needed.

                        +1 Sure it can be done. However I never had the factory turnsignals for my bike. It had wingrack mounted ones when I bought it.

                        Thanks, I am still planning to paint those brackets black to make them blend in with the undertail better.
