    Aux light plug?

    Has anyone come across the aux light plug? I know this thing is pre-wired for aux lights, but I didn't come across it while installing the LED turn signals. I will end up digging around sooner or later, but I was hoping that someone may know where it be.

    Rear LED turn signal install......

    Well, this one was easier, in some ways, than the front ones. 1. You'll have to remove both seats, rear carrier and the one under the pillion seat. 2. I removed the 4 screws that hold the tail light/rear fender, but I did not pull it all the way off. 3. The rear OEM's remove the same as the...

    Shutting engine off in traffic.....

    I'm curious how many of you do this, and, for those that do, have you had to replace the stater?

I have found that I...
