I didn't do this today, but did it this past Saturday -  :-[

First mod on Saphira.  HUGE THANK YOU to Hx2 for helping me out with some wiring tips!  I'll probably post a few more pics in the SERK board for it.
- Added Truck Lite Phase 7 headlight and passing lamps
- Added HD custom auxiliary bracket kit
- Added HD bullet turn signals
- Replaced signal bulbs with CD Dynamic Ringz'
- Added Kuryakyn deep dish bezels
- Added Kuryakyn LED trim rings
- Added CD Signal Stablizer for LED signals - I did need it after running the bike for a few days with the Dynamic Ringz in as a test before the full install.  My signals never "learned" to flash correctly without it.

I know most won't like that I decided to keep the signals on the handlebars, but it does give me more light.  I was on the fence about it, but the boss came in the garage and said "I like it - I feel more comfortable that you will be seen better out there."  That was enough for me to keep 'em on.

I would love to know how well this setup throws the light up the road while leaning in a turn compared to the stock setup.   Looks good.   I'll bet it all uses as much electricity as the standard single bulb used so your electrical system isn't screaming.    :2vrolijk_21:

Digital, I haven't actually done the math, but I think with all the lights being LED's it's actually using far less juice than if the signals and headlight/passing lamps had regular bulbs.  I haven't taken it on the road at night since doing the mod, but it's pretty blinding sitting in front of it to take the pic.   8)

EDIT - Went back and reread your post, Digital.  I think you were saying the same thing, but did so far more efficiently than I did.  I shouldn't post when my mind has turned to mush for the day.

Well, not today but yesterday....20K mile service and a tune with the SE Race tuner.  Not bad results for very little output money wise.  Only mods is the removal of the SE muffler plug and changing the stock header.  I'll take it and it runs so much better.... :2vrolijk_21:

First picture is the base run (with catless header pipe and deplugged SE muffler, no tune).

Checked oil temp this morning. 113 degrees, not bad for a two dog night.
