What did you use to black out your frame stickers?

This morning I took the battery out and fully charged it then reinstalled it; then I installed the new battery cover and chrome panel trim piece.

I need those mirrors . My bikes all blacked out from factory, so don't know why they put chrome mirrors. I guess so I would buy new ones!

Can you tell me how much that fairing was from ordering to mounted and if you like it?

Want a fairing with radio and speakers.

Fabbed the mount out of a piece of 16 gauge sheet metal I bought at Lowes. Super easy to manipluate. My friend is a great fabricator and helped me with the mock up using cardboard. The most difficult part i would say was mounting that top piece you see on the fabbed up frame. That piece contoured to the fender and mounted up to the seat screw post from underneath. There are about 4 threads on the bottom that my seat screw does not use. The light I bought from Chromeglow.com and came as a complete kit. I cut the stock wiring harness from the bullits and wired her up no problem.

Any other questions, PM me and i will try to help any way i can.

Rode it Friday. Started hearing a scraping/rattling coming from the left side of the bike. Before I got home I was already planning ahead to possibilities. The only thing that kept crossing my mind was I was gonna have to pull the primary cover off and have a look.....Turns out my horn came loose from the cowbell...
