Got me some trim...
« on: February 22, 2013, 02:26:41 PM »

Added the decorative trim on the heavy breather ... Not really a mod but I think it adds a nice little detail.  I was surprised how heavy the piece was....all for under $29

Looks Great,
It is indeed all about detail!
What else are you thinking of doing?

Just a few more things . . . daymaker headlight, replace silly reflector with LED strip, replace tail lights with LED, add side mount license plate that attaches to axle so I'll have room to add a swing arm bag, add chrome screws all the way around, replace oil dipstick with oil level and temperature dipstick with lighted LCD readout, add 12V auxiliary port. dyno tune . . . that's all for now.

Hi,
I did the Daymaker Headlight (Awsome) i went for black as you can see on my photo, think it looks pretty cool!
Removed the silly reflectors (I hate them, as do most)
Didn't bother with the dipstick, i have had 3 out of 5 of my pals that did and they stopped working! try Marlins for a better gauge!
Done a lot more also since the photo was taken and its all now starting to come together!
Enjoy your ride, looks great already but as you know, always room for personnel improvements!

From your title I couldn't wait to get to the thread, and you were talking bout scooters (drop the 's' is what I was thinking)

Now that I'm grounded.....how does it attach?

+1 on nixing the LCD dipstick. Been thru 2 myself. Poorly made. Seem to fail in the 366th day. Good idea poorly executed. Went back to stock.

Thanks for the tip on the oil dipstick gauge.  Guess I'll pass.  I wasn't aware the daymaker came in black.  Might be perfect with my black and silver.

I agree the digital readout oil dipstick is crap.  HD replaced 4 of them within a year I had on my FXSTC.  I then just gave up and put the OEM cap back on....
