| Re: Almost done my RCV-mini body mod It came plated out of a local bike shop in town, they still have one in the showroom for sale but want 5'700 for it. They added a break light, turn signals and it was good to go, the even went and got it inspected, registered for street use before they sold it to the first owner. I bought it used with 2000kms for 2700 Been riding it almost every day this summer |

Didn't look that good so I pulled it, Still have it in the house. Yes I could have mounted it higher it was just a matter of where to cut slots. but any higher and the plate wouldn't show but would be in the tail. Last thing I need to do right now is the headlights and break light. I used a semi-translucent flexable cuttingboard and my plan is to put red LEDs inside the tail so when I use the breaks the whole undertail lights up red.... really obvious that I'm stopping. As for the headlight I'm still working with some ideas and will post pics soon. | |
