Gawwwd...another head scratcher trying to find mods that flow. Recently I purchased a Kury signal bar and got it PC'd. But the more I stare at it against the new Russ Wernimont 9.25 cruiser fender...it just doesnt feel right and small for the fender. I am now starting to lean towards just leaving the bullets on the strut and maybe change only the tail light w/ liscense plate on the rear axle. I must of looked at a dozen catalogues or suppliers trying to find a perfect look on the back that flows with the bike. Bah nothing yet.

Any ideas or suggestions appreciated. End of next week the bike gets picked up for the tin man.

Here is a pic of the rear fender from one of the community members...followed by my latest bike.

Thanx.

 

The bike in the top pic looks great!!

The only thing I would do is get rid of the stanchions between the bullet light and the strut. For my Night Train I used front signal bodies and bolted then directly to the strut which brings them in a lot.

 

Good idea. Maybe I should change the look on the strut instead of the bar option.

Which allows me to focus on the tail light only for now to get ready for fitting.

Lots of flush/frenched cateyes and ovals out there. If I were to go this route I want to find a teardrop maybe. Or clear LED the stock design....hmmmm.

 

Radiantz.com has a nice clear stock LED tail and some cool chrome pucks too if you wanted something a little different. I just ordered the LED bullet signal arrays from them for the stock bullet housings.

 

For the turn signals take a look at Alloy Art LED strut turn signals. They mount to the end of the strut and give a nice clean look. I bought mine raw and had them PC'd and they blend right in with the strut. I went with those and the tri-bar LED tail light... bright and flush with the rear fender.

I thought about pucks, but it came across odd. I will try and find examples.

But I am digging those strut covers...with LED tail light built in turn signal that might just do the trick for safety and looks. Thanx for the link bud.

 

How's this...found a clear cateye tail light from drag specialties. French it a bit into fender and leave the bullets w/ clear lens and chrome rings to go with the front. I forgot about the detachable sissy bar that needs room before I mess with the strut bullets.

 

I used the radiantiz led cat eye on my latest fender and it had the run, turn, and brake all built into it.
