    Hi everyone,

    Just wanted to share my pics of my new 2016 Roadster and ask a quick question.

    I have come from the world of naked bikes (hondas and ducatis) and after the missus had me get rid of my bikes she has finally come around to letting me get another. The only condition was it had to be slower than the previous bikes. So far I am enjoying it and its is completely different than my previous bikes.

    My question for anyone who know is: I have changed thefriont indicator lights to LEDs and covered with smoked lens instead of orange ones.

    The rear lights were already LEDs (combination of brake and indicator lights), is it possible to replace the stock orange lens to smkoed ones? Im not sure if it will be possible due to the light configuration.

    Thanks

    +1 on the minister for war and finance. Unfortunately the combined stop/tail/blinkers are sealed units and the lenses are not replaceable mate. I have seen guys tint them with spray on tint as the only option. BTW, great choice of bike and like to colour you chose as well. Cheers, TC

    hey philjt, have a look at the Kuryakyn torpedo LED's. You may need to get some standoffs from Joker machine but they're plug and play and they look so much better than the stock rear orange from HD.

    I've got them on my Sporty and if you need any pics, let me know.

    I just gave my rear lights a single coat of night shades tint spray that I got from supercheap auto. Does what you want and the running, brake and indicator lights are still clearly and very visible.

    I used to ride a heavily modified 48. Now I ride a Street Bob. I was in the stealership today and saw the "Roadster" - what a cool bike! I gotta admit, if they had been around when I bought my Bob I might have been swayed....
