Jim,

While I have not seen your work first hand, I can say those that have experienced it speak highly of it. The pictures would appear to support that position.

Andy,

A man of his word and that speaks highly of you...nice choice of lights.

Bottom Line - Enjoy!!!

Hey Jim, I've got an odd request for you.  All the night shots of course do a great job of highlighting the skillful installations and just how beautiful the jobs and the bikes look.  Sometime when it's not an inconvenience would you shoot some day shots of one though.  Would just like to see how noticable (or not) the installs are when not hidden by the darkness.

Having seen JC's and Ernie's bikes a couple weeks ago I can honestly say I don't remember seeing anything.  But I never thought to look close either.  I know that eventually I'm going to hang the parts I got from you on mine.  And the day shots showing as much of the install as possible will give good clues as to how take best advantage of your multiple installations of experience.

Thanks!

I want to see pics of a Vrod in daylight and dark.  I also want to know if you know anyone here that does the same quality work.  I've never seen one with color and clear mixed.  I've never like the LED's on a bike at all until I saw Q's and this pic of Andy's.  By mixing the clear with orange, it prevents overkill.  I'm not sure how it will look on a V because it has a smaller frame and engine without all the nooks and crannies.  What do you think?

Add that and spotlight up front and I might be able to see as well as be seen!!!

Don;
I'll take a pic or two of mine in the daylight for ya in the next day or so..... Here is a pic of Andy's with the flash. It gives you a bit of an idea of how it will look, the glowing color goes away and you just get reflections in the chrome. I can tell you though that they are not very noticable in the daylight.

Since you purchased the lights I have created an install guide document that shows all of the locations of the lights as well as wire routing, specifically for baggers. PM me your email address and I'll send it to you.

V...I have not done a rod yet but I will crawl all over one next time i'm at the dealership and get some ideas of how and where to place the lights as well as a feel for how they will look.....

Better yet, come to Georgia and let's install them.  I'll let the V be your guinea pig!

Jim,

While I have not seen your work first hand,



Jock, you saw mine......dirty, rain and mud covered as they were, most of that trip.  Jim did my install.  Also, at CC you may have saw Ernie's, SAC's, and several others that Jim also did.

JC,

I stand corrected...the mind is a terrible thing to have and waste...Those were nice and bright, I like 'em!
