Author Message   75aztec Posted on Wednesday, February 20, 2008 - 05:31 pm:        I have an '04 XB12S with a 12R seat and rear body work. The previous owner replaced the under seat pan with diamond plate aluminum that fits well with the paint scheme. But, the license was moved with no light, the turn signals were gone, and the tail/stop was a single row LED. SO, I added small but bright LED turn signals (left on one in the picture), changed to license plate bolts that are drilled with an LED in each to light the plate, and made a stainless "wedge" to mount an LED stop/brake that is way bright. The whole thing looks pretty clean. I thought I would share it. Thanks! p.s. As you can see, I could use suggestions for tires.   Bad_karma Posted on Thursday, February 21, 2008 - 12:59 am:        Looks good Peter.

This is the wrong section for tires, but i love the Pirelli Scorpion Syncs on my old Uly and my Lightning Long. But I dont think they are the kind of tire you would want.   Mrrusk Posted on Thursday, February 28, 2008 - 04:18 pm:        how heavy is the diamond plate?   75aztec Posted on Monday, March 03, 2008 - 05:57 pm:        The plate is 1/8" and was on the bike when I bought it, so I can't give you a weight. You can get panels of it at Home Depot.
