Oh, and at some point I need the double bubble wind screen.

Do you think the dubble bubble windscreen would go with the lines of the bike? I think it would be a little too much....just my opinion...

I never thought so.But maybe I'll take another look at some 250's with the DB.

hey I think Larry's 250 has a db windscreen so if you ever catch him riding it instead of his 10r you can check it out there.

Mark, that's looking nice.

If you ever would decide you needed that inner fender, they're what? $20 shipped on eBay?

The tails look good, but I would probably go with clear corners and red center on mine. But that's good to know about the eBay bulbs and the Radiantz. I was about to buy one.

I just got my clearalternative.com side blinkers in smoke...I was wondering if I need to do any splicing into the wires to move the blinkers next to my brake light?

Markmeintell...Do you still have a license plate light to shine at night? Doesnt seem like it? Is this legal in the US?

Ya, won't be hard. Best way to splice would be solder and heat shrink. Otherwise, I just twist together extremely tight, and tape over connection extremely tight. I have better luck with even the twisting compared to conectors, which I almost never use anymore, as they don't hold on as strong as I can make a connection. I will admit, the twisting isn't best, soldering would be, but I wouldn't used butt connectors on my own stuff.

i like to use environmentally sealed crimp connectors (they use em in aircraft int he military so they have been endurance tested)

basicly you crimp them on then heat it like heat shrink but the center gets soft and glues the twi wires together. becomes stronger than the original wire and seals out corrosion

Where exactly do you get those from? Anywhere online that sells them in bulk?
