DIY, super easy, but I got rid of the stock blinkers as well. Might be harder if you want to keep em tho.

+1 for DIY. I kept the blinkers, and am super happy with my results. I take a little pride in it every time I see the bike...

+1 Jardine.

Don't have a pic, but I like the way it looks. Installation was easy. Price very good compared to several others I have seen (~$60 vs $100 or more for the others).

Only drawback (minor, IMO): no license plate light. Hasn't caused me any problems so far, and the stock taillight can be easily modified to shine on the plate (Dremel or drill and 2 minutes), but I would have preferred a built-in LED.

I made mine.
1/8" aluminum plate, hammered the bends, made a plate hangar, opened the tailpiece to let light to plate.
I got an LED integrated turn/tail/stop light from Robert Hall at XBLights.
Buell now sells a cover for the hole that would be a great place to start for a DIY, p/n L0040.08AZ.
