  Gave the front end a little attention this winter as well.  Chrome allen plugs and chrome bolt covers on the calipers, Chrome front axle mounting hardware kit and chrome rotor bolts.  Getting to the end here of this years winter projects just a couple more things on the punch list will post them up when complete.

Nice mods Big C  :2vrolijk_21:  About ready to do some of the same ones you just did myself. My biggest decision is whether to go with the 10 or 12 inch yaffes. Would you have a pic or could you take a pic of you on the bike so I can get an idea of shoulder position?......Thanks...Grandpa

Cory would you mind taking a picture of the oil gauge (with another gauge in the picture) to get an idea of how the lights look with leds.

  Fireguy this ones for you.  The spun aluminum oil temp gauge looks very close to the stock gauges until they are illuminated.  The oil temp gauge has no backlighting so the numbers on the gauge face don't glow.  Their is only a halo of light that illuminates the gauge face.  The LED's are brighter than stock which allow the gauge to be read at night with no problems.  I knew this going forward with this mod and felt the small cosmetic difference well out weighed the convince of having accurate oil temp at a glance.  Took this pic in dim light with no flash to help show the contrast a little better.  Hope this helps.

  Thanks Eagleye,  I think the shutter setting on the camera enhanced the effect a little.  They illuminate perfect with out blinding or distracting me while riding at night but I find I also can read the gauges easier with a quick glance.  But I wouldn't go any brighter.

Last thing Cory, where did you get your lights and how tough was it installing the cams on your own? Looking at doing the same with Fullsac kit.
