So the moding fever has hit and I had to start modding.. so far this is what I have done:

1 - Drilled Stock Exhaust
2 - Added Battery Tender Quick Connect
3 - Red LED Light bolts in all four license plate holes and removed the factory side reflectors and enlarged the holes and put red LED license plate bolts there..
4 - 12 Blue LED Light Strips and 5 Blue LED Light Pods - 4 6' strips under the tank, 2 9' strips under rear fender, 4 9' strips under bike, 2 6' strips under bike, 2 pods under rear fender, and 3 pods near front by headlight and front of tank area..
5 - DDM Tuning 6000k HID headlight kit
6 - License Plate Mount Helmet Lock

Looks Great, I have been looking for plate lights, do you have a close up to which ones you used? Did you use the same lights for the where the reflectors were? One bright ass headlight...

Thanks for all the replies.. All the LED lights are StreetGlow including the license plate bolts.. I wasn't planning on putting as many as I did.. They actually offer a Motorcycle Kit.. I purchase 1, then another, and then another lol.. Have like 7 LED pods left over just no where to really mount them lol.. Probably add them in down the road.. Also forgot to add that they are all hooked up to a wireless transmitter.. So I have a keyfob on my bike key and can wirelessly turn them on and off.. Took a while getting it all done.. Wanted to make it look as factory as possible.. Used a lot of wireloom and tucked everything in so when you look at the bike it looks completely stock.. The only thing I couldn't hide was the little "igniter" for the hid.. I put the ballast in the the opening under the handlebar area and tucked that away.. Also got the wire harness tucked in there.. The harness is used to draw all the power for the hid directly from the battery.. I use this on all my vehicles as I know HID's need a lot of power on the startup and sometimes factory wiring cannot handle it.. But the good thing is the igniter is black and you really dont notice it as its right where all the wires are behind the headlight.. Came out pretty good.. The only "mess" was all the wires in the battery compartment.. After running all the led's back to the battery location to tie them together I realized that I had 17 positives and 17 negatives lol.. Kinda tough to tie them all in and hide them so for now they are just bunched together in there until I have a little more time to clean it up.. I am very happy with the end result though.. I forgot to take a comparison picture but the hid is bright.. So much better then stock.. That's my boys stryker sitting next to mine and we put them on and it was just so much nicer with the hid.. While driving I would see the reflection of our lights coming up from the vehicle in front of us and the hid just stood out so much and cleans up the bike..

Dam that's a **** of alot of lights, lol. I have a ten piece kit kit and still have yet to install all of them. Mine also has the key fob but I have the multi-color kit with fade, flash and steady settings. It's nice because I use the red on steady while driving and the cops leave me alone while I use the other settings when I let it set somewhere to have some fun. Definately alot of extra wire in my kit aslo, I still have yet to sit down and shorten everything, looks like a rats nest under my seat, lol. Those plate bolts are exactly the one I was looking at, thanks for sharing the setup and information!
