Wow, GSXFun, that light mod is awesome! Is there a kit for that or is it your handy work?

Thanks for that link, GSXFun. This is the best home-made fabrication I've seen for this bike. Fantastic job!

Why thank you....that 7 years of High School is really paying off! :wink:

After I had enough epoxy to seal the circumference of the led to the duct, I made a masking tape swimming pool around the cateye shape of the duct and pored epoxy into it until it was almost flush with the mounting flange on the led.
