A little progress update, I got some mini aluminum turn signals mounted up in the stock locations. I was able to use the mounting hardware from the original signals to get everything fitted properly. I retrofitted them with amber LEDs and installed an electronic LED flasher unit. I like that they look kind of stock and not "flashy".

I've got an LED tail light and a matching set of turn signals for the front coming for it. That should be the last part I need to mount to be able to start riding it a little. I'd like to put around 100 miles on it to figure out any mechanical issues before I tear the whole thing apart to paint it.

Just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration and help wiring yesterday. New Gauges Look and Work great.

No problem. They look great! I'm liking those clubman bars too.

Thanks man, they were a cheap and much needed upgrade over the stock bars. Kinda leans the bike more towards sport and less toward cruiser IMO. I ordered them from amazon for under 30$ I'm pretty sure.

Not sure if you had road tested those gauges yet but I clocked a 28 mile loop the other day and I re-clocked it yesterday... Exactly 28 miles. I also idle at 1200 rpm and run at 4000 rpm @ 60mph which are the same readings I got with the old gauges.

Good to know they are accurate. I've only been able to ride it around the block since I put the gauges on, but the speedo seemed to work. The tach works good every time I start the engine.

Tail light and license plate bracket mounted. I need to convert the tail light to use LED bulbs.
