Hi folks, I decided that since I'm selling this bike soon, I might as well take some good pictures and post them while I have it!

The HID kits resulted in a real mess of wiring at the front, but I did my best to bundle it together and tuck it up and out of the way. The ballasts are stuck to the bottom of the airbox with 3M adhesive strips. I've debated getting or making some kind of small cowling for that corner of the frame, just to hide the wires, but I think it looks ok this way, and it's all about as watertight as it will get... plus I kinda ran out of time to keep working on it. I had to install a switch under the seat to disable the second headlight during the day, so it wouldn't put continual strain on the rectifier. It seems to work fine for the most part otherwise, but if I get caught in stop-and-go traffic for a few commutes in a row with both lights on, I can run the battery down.

The LED light pods were a pain to hide, but I got 4 on the upper frame around the engine, 4 under the tail, one under the swingarm, and one under the footpeg bracket on the opposite side, so it lights the engine, wheel, and ground below. Looks really slick in the rain.

Prepare for image spam.
