Hey fellas, I had to rebuild the links to the pictures on this tutorial, in the process I added some more pictures and tweaked the instructions, but this post is really about what happened to the links... does anybody know the forum administrator?... I just want to know if there was an issue with the system that caused it, of is it related to my account?.. I am just curious, I put a lot of effort on my tutorials for us to enjoy, but I don't want to have to rebuilt them again... forum admin, please help!

How did your wiring work out for this? I have a few clips that are housed inside the headlight and tinkering yesterday I would probably have to cut and solder in wire extensions to make this fit in place....

Just wondering what you had to do as far as wiring went.

Hey Betty... sorry I didn't reply earlier, I didn't notice your question until now... I relocated the speedometer under the handlebars, since I removed the turn signals lights in the front, I used the turn light base as a support:






Nothing fancy... just a cheap relocation option...

Hey!!... thanks for the comments!... yeah... my little Iron seems to be an attention grabber on the street, a lot of other riders are very curious about the riding and handling, many want to seat on it to get a feeling of the rigid struts, spring seat and inverted handlebars... needless to say, few gave me 5 stars for comfort.... heehee

This Thread must live on!!!!!!!!!!!1

Haven't been around in a long time. Gonna start doing some mods again, and i'm bringing back the stock front end which brings me to this Thread. I wanna still keep the front end interesting and I knew I could come back and count on researching either Motodrum or joebotics. Kudos for their headlights.
