That's a purty bike ya got, don't think mine will ever be particularly purty, doubt I'll bother covering up the age spots; would require a whole repaint and replacing some chrome bits.

With the new Canbus system they just "program" them to work as brake/turn in the computer. Thanks for the"purty"...but I bought it like that..didn't build it. I like the looks without the TourPak and it only takes five minutes to change over...remove saddlebags, put TP on, put 4 bolts in and hook up 2 quick connect wires and plug in 2 antennas. A lot cheaper than harley's $600 quick detach kit.

"Stick on's" don't seem very durable to me, but I haven't seen them. I think you done good!!
