I made it myself. I bought some LEDs form Joe Florida on ebay. 6, 4 light oval pods and 4 , 4 led step lights. I then added a set 6 light Electropods. The electropds kit comes with fuses and a waterproof swich. I also ordered a couple of Cage Connectors (pictured below) to make the wiring nice and neat under the seat. The kit ended up costing me approx $75.00 complete including shipping to do it that way. Here is a link to a current listing. It has everything but the 2 six LED Electrodpods. The kit he is showing now comes with a wiring kit, switch fuse etc.

Nice looking mirrors

M50geek · 09-05-2008, 11:50 PM

First pics of my '07 M50z. Mostly stock; Johnskits forward controls, Kuryakyn pegs & mirrors. I'm waiting to put it away for the winter before starting on a few projects. Anyone looking to get rid of their black side covers? Would the key fit the lock on the toolbox side?

Finished painting today.

I've got a set of exhaust pipes that are blacked out that I will install as soon as I figure out how, I'll be blacking the chrome on the signals at some point.

womper · 09-09-2008, 05:15 AM

i'm not sure i like it... but holy is it ever bright

looks a bit unbalanced though... like it would need maybe a stripe on the neck covers or something...

diamond_jim · 09-09-2008, 07:33 AM

Trigger, you get an A for effort.

It looks a little funny to me cause I've never seen a bike like that. I think it would look great if the colors were reversed, meaning body parts green and chrome blacked out. I agree with womper that it does look unbalanced. Try painting the indented circle in the airbox cover green as well. Not the whole cover, just the circle.

Its yours and yours alone. Not my cup o tea but it does not have to be.

Probably too old to figure this out first shot - hopefully pic attached
has my one month old 2008 M50 standing in front of my 33 year
old truck. Love 'em both, but the M50 gets a lot more time on the
road.

diamond_jim · 09-09-2008, 02:49 PM

Well, I ran into the guy again last night that has been wanting to buy my bike since last spring. Now he says he'll have the money next week if I want to sell. Hmmm....

jmckell · 09-09-2008, 02:57 PM

Trigger 1985, that is not a color scheme you see everyday.

dreygun · 09-09-2008, 08:18 PM

trigger looks good. i'd have just gone with the pinstriping only, but definately looks custom!

didn't do anything to the bike, but picked up waterproof shift pants with knee armor. can't stand the yellow wet gear lol. next up is the kuryakyn ultra tour bag

I was considering painting that circle, so I'll probably end up doing that tomorrow. I also have caliper paint to match, that will also be being used to paint the silver cooling ridges, leaving the valleys black. bringing more green up front.

womper · 09-09-2008, 11:15 PM

it'll look good once finished...

it may not be my color, but it's well done and it sure stands out

I do know that bike mods look better in person than in pics. That may balance it out some. Go for it. I give you gobs of credit for trying to do something unique. I've already bought a new stock rear fender and new stock foot pegs for my M50 cause of mods that didn't turn out well.

It's like the green hornet's motorcycle. It's one of a kind.

OHMYGOD It's the best move you could make! Buy a stock bike with a bigger engine and start all over! The fun is in the MOD's bro and you know it!

xtenzzive · 09-10-2008, 11:09 PM

Trigger that paint looks semi-flat. That would rock. That cailper paint you are talking about is the same stuff I used on my front forks. Great stuff, hard to spray smooth though.

BTW, I love the paint. It is so hard to pull the Trigger(pun intended) and paint an already nice paint job. I bet you have no fear on any mod for the bike and can't wait to see whats next.
