Perfect motor, so BLING is all to do on BIG BLUE
« on: December 20, 2011, 01:00:59 AM »

Hello Harley Friends in America,  MERRY CHRISTMAS, and a "prezzie" for you...

Yea, I have gone stupid and bought a lot of bling for BIG BLUE 2011.5, motor is so smooth freak like balanced, and powerful, you do not crack a motor like this...  So most of what I have done to it for is Bling, but I have a Christmas present for you that is easy and looks WOW!

I have done the normal, LED Headlights, LED tail light, real chrome inner primary, chrome engine bolts and tranny bolt sets, LEDs on mirrors, stubby antennaes, chrome Eagle head horn cover with blue LED light (looks good), cat gut exhaust, V&H Monster Ovals, locking matched key fold down glove boxes, LED windscreen trim with indicators, Klockwerks 8.5 tinted wind buffet screen, and a lot more..... But this one is the tops...

Parked up at night, this is really cool and lights up the chrome inner primary and flamed shift linkage that matches up the Eagle...  Cheap, flexible LED strip lighting, off a roll, and put up under the tank where you can feel a flat spot with the 3M super tape it comes with...  You can get this in any color to match your bike, and at night parked up looks WOW!  Cheap to do, pulls about a half an amp, and is the ultimate BLING!!  

Here it is, just on dusk, more powerful at night but here you can see more of what you are looking at: Taken with my IPhone, can get better pictures but this is just so you get the idea of how cool it looks.......

To do it right, you have to pull the tank and give a good clean to a flat area you can hardly feel, that is recessed up near the frame..  I thought it would cut the light down that far recessed, but no...

Then clean that area with a good wax and grease cleaner, wipe very dry, and the strip LED lighting has a 3M double sided tape that will hold...

400 mm strips, two of them pull under an amp, like maybe .4 of an amp for both on.  That is not a battery flattener even left on all night...  While inside, you can leave it lit up, safety, visual, and draws a crowd... heh he..
I like the safety part parked up or along side the road... PS, probably book you with a ticket for distraction if you left them on driving.. heh he..

Color to match your bike, and the chrome bounces it all around.  Yea OK give me stick, pimp my ride, all I know is it looks good to me :nixweiss: :2vrolijk_21:

Dunno RacerDJ,

Dunno bout "Over the Top"....  Cuz when it is parked up, even at the HOG Harley Owners Group, it is in a busy parking lot...  With the Blue Bling, it is hard to miss.   I now have LEDs on mirrors (HD ones) and HD LED tailight, thinking of relay switching them to be left on for the same reason, maybe the LED windscreen trim too...

Yea, a bit of bling, but a functional reason too....  LEDS don't pull much power, the total BIG BLUE LED chrome lite up is only about a 1/2 amp..

Maybe "over the top" is a positive in America, it is abit rib poking fun at here... heh he...   :drink:  MERRY CHRISTMAS
