First order to CruiserCustomizing.com placed tonite - got the clear front and rear lenses with the chrome diped amber lamps and the signal dynamics black plate frame with the euro clear/red LEDs. Now im seriously pondering HID lamp for the front and a Tailblazer. Zukis fender mod is on the "ponder me" list as well. Yes yes.. pix to follow. Got a friend at one of the local dealers whos promising some comp work too... doomed i say, doomed.

Cool!! Which HID are you considering? I need to do this too.

wayout1 · 07-12-2005, 01:44 AM

Havent even really gotten that far on the research for HID yet - might do it at the same time as the WRX which wants clear lenses now too. Im thinking just a lamp swap but ive heard mixed reviews on true output vs cost. EVERYONE seems to have some kind of HID kit - and a lot of them are BS. Wonder if PIAA makes lamp swaps for bikes.

Howd you fare with Dennis? Looks like its time to buy beachfront - in Orlando this year.

Ride that bike and lay off the Blintz.

I know exactly what you mean wayout. I'll have to hit up Cruiser Customizing when I'm finished with the exhaust system project. I've already done the windshield install and the Zuki fender mod. So much to do, so little time. In the end, I want a bike that sets itself apart from the others and not look like a "me too" bike. That's what customizing is all about.

You will love the way they look on your bike. I put them on this weekend they make it look much better.

I have got two shipments of stuff in. All I am waitng for now is the windshield and exhaust. I am going to be very busy Saturday, but in a very good way. Oh by the way I got a motorcyle/ATV jack at Sears for $89. Which I thought was a good deal.

Last I checked "blintz" was a Jewish pastry!

Maybe he meant bling?

i like the clear lamps with chrome bulbs on mine for sure....now i just need to remove the orange/red reflectors one of these days.

Dennis sent a lot of rain all day sat and some of sunday here...little more wind than a normal Florida T-storm, but no thunder actually...just rain rain rain.
