@shiftace great job with the aluminium mesh, I did the same on my oil cover, also a great idea to put those Invisivin label covers and the axle caps are nice too, I had always peeled the stickers off on my different Harleys, always one of the first job with the orange deflectors, I find that so ugly
@Rob58 I would like to do the same on my Low Rider S, I think it's a great improvement but I'm hesitant because I'm not sure I have the right tools...

Why can't you take the stickers off?

Well, it's the VIN sticker, thus "InvisiVIN"

My kickstand ejected it's retaining clip somewhere out there on the road a few days ago and decided to try to eject the joint pin as well.
It nearly punched a hole in my Inner Primary case.
I had to pull the kickstand off and attempt to reassemble it.
I dont have the strength to stretch that spring so ran down to the Dealership with my motorcycle lift on my bike so they can put a new pin retainer clip and reassemble it.
So yeah that's what I did to my bike today, reattached the kickstand.
****ing hell I have the weirdest problems with my bike.

That's actually a documented problem with updated parts.

Ya... there are VIN numbers all over. And they are not both VIN stickers. What is the problem with taking the stickers off?

Never seen that either!
Any idea what the handlebars or exhaust pipes are?
