Ok, so far I have relocated the horn, cinched up the front brake line closer to the front fork, painted the Harley emblems, added mirror extensions, installed the Buchshot heat shields, added the edge-cut muffler end cap and put a small Bell diddy-bag at the back of my seat. I still have that digital Tach yet to arrive but basically I think I'm done (for now).

Very nice, I like the buckshot pipe gards also. That little bit of color you added really sets the bike off and makes it look alot different now. Thanks for the photos.

OldDawg:
Where did you get the paint? Is that Harley, touchup paint from a little bottle with cap brush? It really looks good. You did a great mod.

Dam you move fast for an Old Dawg Looking clean, really like the painted accents, so subtle yet such an impact it makes overall!

Got the paint at Walmart. It was a can of Krylon Super Bond Outdoor. I just sprayed some in a pill bottle and used a very fine brush. Kinda tedious work but you can do it if I can. I used a toothpick to clean around the edges as I screwed up.
Thanks for the compliments guys.

that's a good point to stop at

at least you got it to a stage that you're happy with it.

mirror

Hey, OldDawg:
Your additional hardware to the mirror extenders looks the best to me. Do you mind telling what length hex head bolt, nut? and washers you used?

I didn't buy any nuts and the washer were just a little smaller than the diameter of the threaded bolt so I drilled it out. The washer that actually fit the bolt was larger in circumference and I didn't like the way it looked. The bolt was 1 1/4 inches long overall. The actual threaded part was 1 inch. I drove my bike to the Ace store and took the mirrors and did that mod in the parking lot. That way I didn't have to run back and forth and could pick exactly what I needed and what looked best.

The small changes make a big difference. Goo call on the painted emblems it really adds a nice contrast.

@Spock001 It looks like everyone is doing the mod just a little bit differently. I used a chromed button head 5/16-24 1" bolt. I also purchased two chrome locking washers. I used one just under the mirror and one on top of the acorn nut. It is all a matter of personal preference.

I have a noob question for you? Does cinching up the brake line to the front fork have any adverse effects?

I have had it cinched up from the first week I bought my 750 and it hasn't had any adverse effects on my machine nor has it stressed the line. It is probably a stress relief for that line. It looks a lot better than just hanging there like a loose piece of rope.
