Looking dang good!!! Nice job on that sweet girl.

Coming along slowly, now for the fun part! Some what hiding the wiring, I was going to run all the wires thru the frame & hide them that way. But that's alot of work, plus I didnt like the thoughts of drilling frame in several locations. I'm liking the looks of it. I got matching bullet turn signals for front, if they ever show up. I have a bunch of jap bike lights, so I'm using them to mock front up, so I can finish wiring up front.

Use some black shrink tube and then use those fancy zip ties like on our motorcycles. Should look pretty pro built like that.

Yeah I've been soldering & heat shrinking everything I've worked on so far. I got some of them 3M stick on zip tie anchors, I guess I'll use them. They hold great if everything is clean b4 you stick them down. I wish I had a 10ft roll of heat shrink still, I'd pull my harness off when I'm done wiring & heat shrink the entire harness.

You can buy in in rolls, or pieces. We buy it in 100' rolls at work and have a worker cut it to the size we need to stock or requested by the customer.

Ok guys I need your opinion, the cheap headlight I bought is not as bright as hoping. Its plenty bright for riding at night, just not bright like i want. Ok i got 4 these good led lights, there 2"X2" & 1500 lumens each. Where do you think i should mount them? Should i mount 1 on each side of the headlight? Or should i make another bracket & put them down low on the front fork, by the front tire drop outs? What do you think would look best? Open for other suggestions as well.

I might use them on my other bike. I'm trying to go for a nostalgia type look on this bike. I know the square led lights shoots that out of the water thou.

I also got a pair of 4" round led lights I could use, I could use 1 where my headlight currently is mounted, or I cud butcher the headlight I bought & retrofit one of the 4" led lights in the headlight bucket.

I'd do the two rounds down on the forks.
