I finally got around to taking a couple pictures of the new parts I put on my 2010 Roadster. It doesn't mean I got around to cleaning it though. It's not bad, just not as photogenic as some.

Belly Pan/Chin spoiler, LED integrated Mirrors, Kuryakan ISO grips, iPhone 4 w/ Otter box case mod, Badlands "Whiskers" LED turn signal license plate frame. I think the mirrors look pretty cool. I was not too sure about them until I put them on the bike. They took some convincing, but after I twisted the joints around enough, I got them to look how I wanted. They are low, but still very usable. Infact, I feel I have more side to side view than with stock. Since the front and rear turn signals are not LED, I had to get one set of load equalizers. I tried a few different electronic flashers, but none worked well enough to activate and deactivate the lights. They just seemed to pulse. Now I am using just the load equalizers and stock flasher and it works very well. All lights are supper bright. And the flyscreen is a perfect place to put a hat while riding. It doesn't go anywhere since there is almost no wind in there.







The iPhone 4 case is a new Otter Box case with a clip on belt holster thing. I just used a piece of rubber hose, and 3 zip ties to attach the clip holster. So now the iPhone has a tough case and can clip on the bike any time I ride to change songs, see who called, maybe check a text at a light, and use the GPS navigation. It's very secure but still comes out of the clip with one hand. Check out my profile for a couple more pics.

The next mod will be exhaust. Still up in the air about it. Not sure about the new Jardines anymore. Might just go with the TORs. Then it's time to start painting and powder coating things black. Some will be gloss, some matte.

Let me know what you think!
 
Even though you have the slow color (I know...you didn't really have any choices in that) it is a fine looking machine.

Nice look.

Pssssst ....(whisper) Dude, your bracket is showing from behind.
 
Awesome.. I so need to save up for one of those chin spoilers, that would help keep the motor so much cleaner.. and it looks great too!
 
Looks great. My only suggestion would be to mount the plate up on the fender above the taillight. Look to Britman's gallery for an example.
 
Nice Bike

That is a sharp looking Roadster. The more I look at the model, the more I like it. Mod's look great, but trust me it's just the beginning, there will be more. What I really like is the yards you have out there in AZ. You don't have to cut, mulch, or fertilize rocks.
