Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!
As far as the brake light I think you are correct. I like a longer fender with a lowered license plate, either will keep the bitch on ..lol
That is a similar route I was going with before I busted everything up. ( not my bike pictured).
I had spent about 2K bolting on Harley Parts, before the wreck, cash paid for 07 Sportster, liability insurance cancelled 5 days after wreck, by Gieco.
Purchase by me March 2007.
Wrecked April, 31 2010.
( Inherited Harley from my brothers widow....... 7 miles on speedo (drivers course miles only) he bought it to ride with the thought that the cancer that was killing him would be defeated as he rode alongside, the kansas patriot guard..)
My brother was a 2 tour VN Vet, starting in '67 and was a POW MIA bracelet wearer for 40 years. ( a MIA ke knew from highschool). He was well know within this group of people.
He never took it off.
I rode in my brothers place and in his honor, for servicemen killed in battle on about 17 missions.
I haven't wrecked since I was 17 years old and have had 4 street bikes and three offroaders...
Literally everything from every angle became fukked.
I have been thru worse but....
I posted this pic because I am thinking of getting back in the saddle.
After almost a year of recovery I can't stopped being pissed off.
I can't wait till I feel the breeze on my knees again.
Riding is the happiest I am.
I am almost to the point of realizing life happens and shit comes along with it . I have always know this but, I haven't quite yet stopped eating the shit and got to getting to the, spitting it out, and stop whining about the taste.

glad you are feelin' better. get you knees in the breeze!!!
A whole new front end, trees and everything, handlebars etc...the list goes on.. all done and paid for out of pocket.
I need the tank repaired and painted , some turn signal stuff , and new front fender left to do. odds and ends... I am not going to ride around until all is perfect.
I found some real cool turn signal lamp assembly thingies, get this... the little chrome arm that extends your blinker light out about 4 inches away from the rear fender has 3 little red LED lights on the rear facing side of the armature.
I have been adding things to a stock sportster without trying to undermine, "stock" and without to much jazzy stuf that makes it out of it's range of looking good or wasting money.
I may also put three little black (just slightly lighter than the gloss black tank color) shamrocks on the hole locations "tank repair areas". Ghost them in . Some green overspray on the shamrocks, will only show up in strong sunlight..?
Lift my curse.
Thanks for your concern and kind words.

No No No The lens is on..... there. sorry... should have said that.
I wish I had a flood light on the back..lol I have never trusted stop lights and the people who run bikers over from behind.
I am always clicking my rear brake at people coming up on me I thought the leds would look not so loud as to be overkill ( too disco) on this simple bike, yet add some soft flair and increase my assault on those behind me.
Peace to those Arizona guys hit last year by that truck.
i got to ride in a different type of saddle this weekend!!!

Ok here is the scoop...
Harley replaced the front end forks, tripple trees, handle bars etc.. then I had them perform my 5000 mile maitenance. (The hard Stuff). back in september, the bike has sat for a year under a tarp where pictured.
April 29th will allways be a day that will live in imfamy< sp) one year since wreck coming this month.
I am assembling all the bolt on stuff. in this rebuild.
The first thing I did when I bought the bike was install a lowered liscence plate new pegs bull horn highway pegs new grips etc on the bike. They saved the motor and most of the bike from complete destruction.
I need a new front fender one more tail light turn w lens a new side panel ( temp fix in pics) and some mirrors I am almost there.
My despondancy is still rampant but time is working it's majic on me a perhaps one day I will get the fukk on with whattever the fukk it all means .
Fix it and heal from within Peace Out Bitchez!
Here is 5 days after at the impound lot 560.00 ugg! just for that. With some repairs pictured. Heating of steel brackets for pegs.I used the vise as a press then beat the shit out of the brackets on basement floor with the ball peen hammer.
Ok fine almost.
Ok here is even more, poop, scoop or just plain nobody gives a frikk.
I decided I didn't like the LED'S that run along the backside of the turnsignal support arm.
Harley and perhaps most bikes the turn signals are just for turning they are not constant, running lights that intensify with breaking usage and stay on for additional rear light visual. Plus they were yellow or orange like the front.
So, I was looking around and found this simple kit plug in and it came with red lenses.
65.00$ from HD dealer.
Now my, "rear only" turn signals are on all the time along with my rear fender brake running light.
And they are red and seem to operate just fine they increase intensity when break or turn indicators are applied.
It was all just interuptin a six pin connecter under the seat and snapping on some groovy new red lenses.
We<( Voices in my thomeheadbrain) shall see if it perhaps this "less intensifies" my electrical system or over taxes it's abilities,k I doubt it. Plus there is a warning on the paperwork about state laws reguarding red turn signal legality ..WTF..I found nothing on the net about it...?
Hate To Love Me..... and Vote Vegetable in 2012.
2015 once smoke 2 smoke ...poke
clara the tiny giraffe make fur curve
did the same to my bagger
Cool
I ordered my new mirrors Saturday they should be here by Wednesday I hope.
I have 2 1/2 inch black electrical tape covering the dents in the top of my tank from the handlebars.
I also have set up to have those repaired and painted a custome bike build shop north of the river,
along with a new front fender but money is tight again.
My 88 YZ 600 is under the blue tarp in the picks needs a new ignitor unit I may work on that this spring also.
If my new business veture fails I may be hitting the jiggalo circuit.

I couldn't get back in time to correct my typo..so i did a little research to find a page about my old bike, under tarp.
I usually tell people it is a YZ or FZ (Fazer) because the bike I have is semi rare.
No one has heard of a YX. I have skuffled with bike nuts who know more than me that a YX600 ever existed.
This motor was the favorite of many a drag bikepro it will ride a wheelie as long as you want.
Mine is black with gold top motor accents.
Nice balance.
I paid 2,100 $ a feww hundred to much in 1992 with 3000 original miles like new garaged by former owner.

3 years ago I tore this down to the frame motor on, lubed and painted everything but lost interest when the electrical failed me
and i got busy and then i got this new Harley all the sudden . Have I posted about this before..?

I have decided that I need to thank all of The RA people for years of this and that hope you all had some fun.
Here is me in 2007 and then a week ago 2011. I still think I wish I had a softer look I just don't photograph well could be why I spent so many years on the other side of the camera.
2 years of college made me a hippie again.
My knees are back in the breeze ...prolly cut my hair again in the fall my hair stylist begs me not to and my new field of endeavor allows for it. I just don't know.
