Finished the mini-apes today

It feels good to have it all back together!

New brake/turn lights (with run/brake/turn module)
Lots of powder coated pieces
13" mini-apes by Don Meyers. (had to extend hoses and electrical)

These brake/turn lights are much more visible than the LED strips I had installed on the outside edge of the rear fender. That solution wasn't visible from much of an angle besides straight behind me. These are a Kuryakyn part for a Goldwing. I sawed some of it off to change the shape, and painted the chrome black. Love it!
-The "run" setting of the module didn't give enough contrast to turn and brake in my opinion, so I disconnected that wire. I may experiment with added resistors at some point.

Mini-apes and powder coated crash bars and floor boards. Highway pegs are black now too, but not installed yet.
