Another option for you if you wanna go a more Budget route I kept the stock lolli-pops and just cut the straight portion of an 8 inch shower arm from any hardware store, and it fit perfectly inside the lolli-pops, got a harley lay down license holder, and changed the stock bulbs and sockets to dual 1157 with red bulbs and wired them as running and turn but not brake. All in all dont think I spent much more than about 30 bucks and a little time with my bike which is always nice. More than enough light on the back in my opinion. Now just waiting on my license bolts with led's built in to light up my plate and I will be happy with the back end unless Santa brings me an integrated tail, brake and turn teardrop.

Hey I love the look of the lights in the rear. I have be banding my head on trying to decide on what look to go with. Would you mind sharing the exact model of your lights and if you feel that provide enough light at night time. I already have a plug and play system so I'd keep them set up as brake, run and turn signals. Also, very important, dodes the screw that bolts them on rub the back tires? Nice job on the rear fender too...Cleaned it up and still kept the roadie look

Those are the Kuryakyn Small Silver Bullets, P/N 1611. They are more than adequate for use as run/turn/brake lights during the night and day. And no problems with the bolt rubbing the tire. If you want the lights to bolt directly into the fender subframe, you have to get the metric to 3/8" adapter stud or you could drill out the metric threads on the subframe and use the hollow bolt that is supplied with the lights.
