I agree. This bike looks great with anything though. I thought about putting smaller turn signals in the front.

Any suggestions or has anyone done it successfully? Just finished blacking out the engine/frame numbers with black paint and want to tackle the sticker.
How about dumping the charcoal canister? It's a simple task and you can use the old tubes to route the overflow nicely under the bike.

I like the light location. Very original.

I've already scratched my pipes up more than I would like in the corners. I'm thinking I'd lose those lights the same way.

On the handle bar install, did you clip the wires under the tank or in the controls on the handlebars?

I tried to separate the clips in the harness under the tank but ended up cutting and will start the solder and heat-shrink-wrap this afternoon.

I pulled the harnesses out of the frame then pulled the wires out of them, ran them through the bars and plugged them back in.
So far I have had plenty of clearance with the lights. They are close to and about the same height off of the ground as the frame.

Canister has been relocated but I totally forgot that I could use the one line from the injector to run the overflow/vent out the back. I just used one of the rubber hose connectors and turned it back under the tank. Maybe I should figure out a way to reinstall the line to the back of the bike. I just thought it was a vapor vent and not likely to drain any gas? Will it actually drain liquid gas? Not sure if you can see in the pics but the vent tube is just a short piece turned into the opening between the tank and the frame. Now I'm worried gas will drain on the motor?

Still wondering if anyone know if actual liquid gas will excape from the vent tube that runs from the tank to the little plastic valve attached just behind the head tube? In the pic its the bent tube that runs to just behind the tank and is open. I don't want liquid gas dripping out!

Way too long...Just my opinion. You're way more creative than myself!
