What is the FE Kit that you people are using

HI all

I got 2008 and need to have FE on it.

Plesae suggest, Not so expensive and can be installed at home. I have tools.

thanks

Re: What is the FE Kit that you people are using

I'll reveal my FE secret go to a place where you can buy sheet metal.

here's the tools you will need. (most people probley have all of them already)
jig saw
drill
ruler
soap stone or crayon
optional welder

I made mine out of 1/16 inch sheet metal you'll need a piece 8.5" X 6"
here is the pattern that you would cut out
if you add tabs for the stock turn signals it's quite a bit more work.
once you've cut out the pattern you'll drill the holes where marked. you'll need a vise to bend the metal into shape, but it's not necessary if you don't have one you can use a cresent wrench to make your bends. you'll need to bend the two ears in a 90 degree angle up so the notch is at the left side of the FE. then test fit the FE on your bike. from there you'll see where you need to bend the plate so it fits properly. once that line up you'll need to make tabs for your license plate bracket off the stock fender. the license plate light can be used also with a little more cutting on the bracket. if your interested in making this, I can post up detailed instructions
if you already have the tools you can buy the metal for under $10.00, with a few hours of your time you can make one up.

Re: What is the FE Kit that you people are using

I just got FAZR6's kit today. I'll get some pics of it up on Saturday. (after I get my new signals, I'm going to install them at the same time.)

Re: What is the FE Kit that you people are using

It's a picky thing, but I've harped on about this before...I wish the FAZR6 FE kit came with adaptors for after market signals that only require a 5/8" hole instead of the "OEM" oval egg cutout.
I just don't like the look of the necessary large flat washers that are needed when installing after market signals.

Re: What is the FE Kit that you people are using

When i replace my rear signals with my FE kit that has the stock oval holes i will most likely just make a filler plate and weld it in place... I agree though that it would be nice to have that work done already...

You can buy the egg-fillers at Freedom Cycle. They even sell the cool CF blinkers. Not bad prices either!
