is half the stuff you do on your bike legal?

you can sorta see it from the back, it doesn't have a light though.

btw, i replaced the stock brake light with a clear alternatives part. the right or left sides blink amber when you use the turn signals.

use the bracket that held that plastic piece on. Screw it onto the bike with the 2 original screws, then drill holes in the license plate so you can bend that little piece and mount the tag. It looks really nice and you won't get messed with by the cops. I'll post some pics of mine later.

Lookin' good is nice until you get a ticket. Mounting the plate tucked way under is just asking for the wrong kind of attn. from the law IMO. I won't even go into the wisdom of removing your mirrors...

Is that so that you never see who hit you and they don't understand how you got in front of them (and then under them)?
