AWKS full rebuild ????

would be cool to wire those leds into the brake switches and make them brake lights.
also are your rear tires even with the front?

these frame plugs will stay as just running lights
i have a front brake switch built into the yfz handle/master i'm using, and thought i had a micro switch banjo bolt for the rear master, but it looks to be for double lines, so i will get a single line one, and wire them both into a brake light, so either brake will light it up,
but will prolly come up with a center bracket with leds for it, possibly an iron cross shape to match the front bumper ????????????
i also have an iron cross brake light saved in ebay ?????? but might be too much,
i may also just do a few leds in the back of my cfm airbox, like my original leds were ????

i really like that slick led lights, ull have to pm me where u got them, i would really like to get me a set and use them as also brake lights for my build
the led's i get at radio shack, they used to come in red, blue green and yellow, in 3 different sizes, these are medium sized ones, and are $5 for a 2 pack
i had been selling them with wiring and connectors as a kit, for mounting in the stock "toolbox" way back when i first came on here

also, the little led's i used have the "springy clips" and will fit into a hole drilled in the stock plastic frame plugs, i couldnt seem to find mine, so i improvised with brass, but not needed if you have the stockers

Looks good Joe! I was just thinking about the last ride when we went over all 23 of those woops! Man that was a blast(er)!
we're headin there again real soon bro !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how bout some timed races up them and back down at this years ride ????????
everyone throws in $5, winner takes all, or a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, split
excluding me, i run them all the time and have an unfair advantage
Sounds good! I want to do them when I'm not so close to anyone get some better AIR!!
some guys had enuf and didnt wanna come back down them, thats where you can really fly !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
and might as well extend this build thread right into my sons bike...........
the other day, my son and i sanded down all the nicks and scrapes from 2 very hard years on my old frame and rattle can paint job,
today my buddy mixed the paint for me and i laid down some epoxy primer and 2 coats of jet black, zero runs, i'm gettin the hang of a pro spray gun !!!!!!!!
it'll get a coat of clear on monday, with maybe some "prismatique" < ??? added in
that powdery sh*t that reflects all different colors at different angles
he wanted me to use it on my frame, but was afraid it would reflect too many greens and yellows, like i have seen it do before, that wouldnt go too good with my red/black/white color scheme
but with my sons black plastics/green monster energy grafix it should look cool ?????
