thanks, nope no burn, hell didnt even melt any of the plastic... the blade does not spin it does this vibrate and i used the wood and drywall bit it worked very well and amazingly easy cut like butter. look it up on a dremel site pretty sweet tool. the tail light fitment was tricky with the mounts but not too dificult

the main mount is allready on your bike, to use the F4i taillight. its almost a direct bolt on, just adding one more bracket for security and the angle of the light. aswell as for the blinkers their is allready a hole for them to mount to, just cut off the exess metal to keep things tidy.. no worrys ill have pics up tomorrow.

Sorry i didn't have anytime to go to my storage unit to get pics today, i'll try tomorrow.

delvryboy:
The blinkers are just some carbon fiber ones that I had purchased from our local motorsports dealer for 20.00, they are universal and work well.

Yamaha George:
I have a new muffler and I am working with it trying to get the right angle and just to get it to mount up. It's a carbon fiber oval muffler just like the vance & hines ssr2 but their is no mounting hardware, can't remember the name of it right now, but thanks for the comment.

not very difficult, just find the lines you want, and tail light you'd like and see what you can get to work, trickest part is relocating the Voltage regulator, just make sure you have the nessasary tools
