Installed some CRG Arrow bar end mirrors, RhinoMoto adapters, and some grippier Driven D-Axis grips to replace the slick stock grips. I filled the left stock mirror hole with a Ram Mount for the cell phone, and am going to add another on the right for GPS (I left the mirror base in to change height so the GPS sits above the tach display).

Get some form of UV protectant or coating/enamel/polish etc for those CRG mirrors. Unfortunately CRG has some bad anodizing on their products and even in WA state in a garaged environment, you will come to realize over time the black will fade to brown. Maybe UV protectant will help prevent that. People in AZ be sporting bronze/brown CRGs all day long. :D

Hey fusbal, that's the tall Puig screen, right?  How's it work for you?  Even at 5'6" I get blasted over 70MPH with only a fly screen.

I actually bought both the sport and the sport touring (I think that's what the tall one is called).  I found the sport to be useless - worse than having nothing really, because it just directed all the air up to my upper chest, shoulders, and head.  That resulted in an odd stress feeling where most of my body is fine but my head and shoulders were constantly being pushed back.  
 
The sport touring actually works and I can't recommend it enough.  I get some air on the top of my helmet, but the design of the helmet does its job at that point and cuts through the additional wind.
 
I don't like the way the sport touring looks as much on this bike, but I care more about function over form.

I bought a denali mount for them.  I'm not handy enough to fabricate my own means of mounting them that I'd trust to not snap when I hit a bump.

I've got them wired into the high/low beams, so they run as additional daytime running lights/low beams, and then unleash their fury when I flip on the high beams.  I like them, but I don't think they're worth the money.

Tonight I put some Meguiars Ultimate Black on mine, while doing the black plastics. It seemed to give them a protective coating and turn them a little blacker, so I'm hoping it might work for a while. I want to find some of this, because I've heard good things about it.
 

Why can't left turners see us?

Yeah, my hindsight is brown black compared to my arrows.  I put Klasse sealant on it, hoping that works.  I'll find out about 6 months- which is how long I had the hindsights on.  And its right smack in summer in WA here so maybe I can get in a lot of sun and see if there is a color change.

I picked up 4 of the denali dm micros (5w each) and mounted in the same spot. Yours are even beefier at 10w. They're pretty damn bright,  even blinding at night. I leave all 4 of them on during the day with my high beam, and if it ensures that one single person sees me instead of nails me then they've paid for themselves right then and there. They dont appear to dazzle anyone as I havent gotten any complaints. (I do watch faces...no irritation shown) Pardon me for saying so but you might not be giving these little pods enough credit. IMO its money well spent, they're excellent quality super bright pods, they look cool and most importantly they increase being conspicuous out there. Who knows they might have already saved your azz from some idiot. ;)

Put these on order after the woodcraft bars my feet need to be moved I feel arched over and the stock set scrapes before you use all your tire soooooo. I hope they work out Ive herd a few guys have them here and I have the $20 levers and they work great fingers crossed.

Threw on the R&G case covers, followed by the obligatory 'walk around' and gaze time.
Not surprisingly it's lightning and rain yet again. >:(

Managed to get one of my woodcraft frame sliders off to put on my right side motocage. Butttt like all DIY projects something had to go wrong. Stripped the other bolt that secures the puck to the frame slider base. So now I can't remove the puck to remove the engine mount bolt inside. Ughhh! I'll have to take it to my local dealership guys on Monday to help strip that bolt out. I'll finish the left side motocage then too. But I'll also have my woodcraft clips on installed and crash covers so yay for that!

I ruined 3 drill bits while attempting to replace both of mine after my crash
 
ended up taking a dremel and cutoff wheel to the puck around the bolts...

The puck that took all the damage in the crash didnt fight me much...
the right side one however... holy hell

@sorkyah Oh man that's disheartening to hear! That def looks like a lot of work just to replace this part! I'm gonna let the shop guys handle it when I go in on Monday to get my clip ons. If I had only known how much of a b*tch it was gonna be to just remove these sliders, I'd never have put them on lol
