    Modular, the pipes look like the bike is running a little lean. Billy & Dan, both look VERY good!!! Ray.

            I just wanted to throw in my two cent's worth, I didn't use the LED type lights but I did find some very subtle signals that are halogen, there are two brands and I ended up with a set of both. One is the EMGO "rabbit ears" and the other is the Drag Specialties "eagle eye", they are nice and small but also nice and bright, if you are set on the LED type they do have them in the LED that are the same size and style.
            Here are some pictures to give you an idea if you like.











            The last picture shows the signals with the brackets I made to mount them below the fairing. I have more pictures in my album with a little more info.
            Of course you know you will need a different flasher relay, there are plenty out there but what I bought was the K&S part# 21-1389 from Dennis Kirk it was only $8.99.
            One of the things I like most about them is the signals no longer stand out like giant orange beacons.

            Just thought I'd throw this out there.

                  Although not very custom, I have added a few touches to make this my own.

                    Wow, that looks great! What kinda exhaust did you use or make?

                      my ’78 550

                      Love this thread. Lots of good ideas for my ’78 GS550 project. I just got this bike as is. I haven’t had a chance to put my mark on it yet.

                        Toadstool Food, like the jockey shifter on your new project. I'd like to do that on my next project bike.
