Pro procrastinator Posted March 26, 2021 #1 Posted March 26, 2021 Im sitting here looking at my 89 vr with the fairing off and most of the electrical hung off to the side and trying to picture a 6.5 inch bullet headlight with a chrome blinker bar underneath it and wondering if a national cycle v-stream windshield made for a mid 2000's Suzuki boulevard would fit. Its made to mount to the shocks and boulevards have a fairly large headlight. Just wondering what you guys think. http://www.nationalcycle.com/n28210.html#product-media-modal
cimmer Posted March 26, 2021 #2 Posted March 26, 2021 It might work, but you are going to expose a lot of wiring and relays that are behind the Yamaha fairing? How do you plan on dealing with those? I guess you could fabricate a housing for them and hide them behind that. Rick F.
Pro procrastinator Posted March 26, 2021 Author #3 Posted March 26, 2021 I was going to modify "hollow out" a fuel tank off of another bike and use it to cover the battery, air box, electrical. I was going to make a housing behind the light which should be out of sight to hold the larger of the components and and try to mount the speedo cluster from an rsv on the tank. The center computer i was going to mount in a speedo pod up front with volt and temp in another. No radio or cruise planned unless i can find enough room under the fake tank to hold the actuator. The air ride controls would be moved to the saddle bags since once your moving they dont get used. Am i missing anything? Still trying to decide how to tackle the side panels below the seat. Might make extensions to run below the modified tank and fill in above the rad. Have to decide on steel or fiberglass for that. See what looks better. Have leds to turn the reflectors on the bags into running lights and third brake light ideas still planned. Ive got parts waiting state side for the border to open so i can pick them up.
