    Woo....ok its a boring mod

    I learned my license plate light was burned out a couple weeks ago, and I know that cops look for that as a dumb reason to give you a ticket, so I got some LED license plate bolts off ebay and hooked em up.

    Here is the old and busted:



    Here is the new hotness. Yah the plate number isn't blocked out, what you gonna do about it

    p.s. yah I have the gigantor stock (quiet) exhaust on for now.



    and what it looks like in the dark:

    No. My mod is more boring-er. I peeled off my gay falco decals yesterday. Your license plate light bling is way cooler.

    I tightened the nut up on my right hand mirror yesterday as it kept getting blown round as I rode along. Doesn't get blown about any more but I still can't see much more than my elbows.

    Oh - slightly more interesting - I changed the seat hump for the pillion seat so that I could take my lad on the back to the football.
    The modification spree didn't end there ..... in a fit of excitement I went and swapped it back again before I put the bike away.

    Thought you needed to know these things.

    I fully intended to install my replacement tank this winter, but have never gotten around to it. I also have a second tail piece to paint and haven't done THAT either.


    But, I DID stay at a Holiday Inn Express a few weeks ago.

    So boring it doesn't even qualify .... hey now that is good

    Ha! I KNEW some of you older guys wouldn't get it....
    That is one of the original Cylon Characters from Battlestar Gallactica, circa 1978-79. His name was LUCIFER.
    Took me some searching to find a picture of him. Apparently his voice was dubbed with a semi-famous actor's: Jonathan Harris; who starred in the original Lost in Space, and as luck would have it - a small non-speaking role in THe Day the Earth Stood Still..!
    -- a little sci-fi trvia for you there...! --

    It's just the first thing that came to mind when I saw Dogjet's Nooj Tails and Plate lights....albeit somewhat INVERTED.

    I love the Cylon in the background. I don't know what it is but something about the pic makes it look like he's about to put up a 'Hello Mum - I'm on TV' sign or something at any second
