Re: EN500A "pilot box" replacement with a tachometer

Very nice. I've got plans to do something similar at some point down the road. I purchased an extra clamp to work with in case I mangle it too bad. Do you mind sharing what LEDs & holders you went with. I've looked around a bit on line, but the one's I think might work I'm worried are going to b...

Re: Highway Bars for Vulcan 500

Ah from the picture angle it looks closer to the exhaust pipe than it really is. That gives me a few ideas. I did some creative relocation of the idiot lights to put my tach where the idiot lights used to be. I'll have to see if I can dig up some picts. I'd like to see what you did with the idiot l...

Re: 94 EN500A Saddle bag supports.

I made a set of my own using 1/4 inch rod I bought from Home Debt and bending it in a vice. I originally soldered Compression Lugs (found in the electrical dept of the same big box hardware store) on the ends to bolt to the bike.
