Rear light help-Need one!

[Zerofreeze]

I am looking for a rear light that will look good on my cafe seat-I dont want anything huge and was thinking of doing the recessed light thing or get one that mounts low on the side with the plate--Any help would be great----Boy my rear looks nice--Paints only 1st coat though---Thanks!!

side mounted mini cats eye with blue dot would look retro cool

Is this what you're refering to, sonny?

Zerofreeze,

I seriously want to see more pics of that bike! Especially since it's shaft drive.

Nice bike! AND you're from R.I. Bet you don't see many cafes around there. Why don't you add the smaller tombstone light sold on ebay? Not really much is going to hug that fender since its been bobbed. You may end up with some type of side configuration, but just be sure its visible from both sides. Post more pix when you can-thats a quick turn around from the way you bought it.
