Semper Fi! Now you gotta fix the horn and primary. Can't leave that EGA out there by itself.

I could add load to the low beam circuit so the bike sees at least 1.4a but I'd rather not cut in to the wiring so I just ignore the red diagnostic when I do need to use low beam.

It's a nice light and so much brighter than the stock headlight, that red diagnostic is my 'low beam' indicator I will look in to upgrading to a better LED but for now, the added lighting is worth that little annoyance...
Do you just leave your lights on High beam 100% of the time while riding?

When I'm riding during daylight hours I just keep the high beam on. My bike isn't throwing any codes like your CANbus is, so it's just an annoyance that the electrical diagnostic light comes on when I do switch to low beam after dark. Once I restart the bike with the headlight switched back to high beam the diagnostic light clears and stays off until I go back to low beam again.

I don't like the fact it's doing what its doing but I do like how bright the LED is, I will address that with a different LED headlight; I only paid $50 shipped for this LED and it was a test to see if it was worth the coin for one of the better LED's; it is

That's how a Wide Glide looks The 2" tank lift is the perfect choice, it follows the lines of the bike perfectly...

the china 8690m knock off didnt throw any codes. But the 8690a is waiting for you when you are ready to have your mind blown

Today I started working on the new(used) OEM exhaust headers. I started cleaning up the front header with some 0000 steel wool and Blue Magic Metal Polish. I bought some semi gloss black high heat spray paint for the smaller black heat shields. I'm going to order some chrome heat shields later. I need the rear bracket and heat shield clamps then everything should be good to go - as far as the exhaust.
