[JRK5892]

I am pretty new to the rockster world... i have only done Green LED's in my bike and it glows a sick green at night! what else have ya'll done out there! i am ready to start working on my bike and want some ideas?! any ideas for exhaust? thanks and I am happy to be a new member of the forum!

Welcome aboard..I was just wondering where and how you did those green LED's.

You have many options for the exhaust..different brands..cat replacements (Y pipes)...but you will not gain much in performance.

If all you are after is a better sound..the easiest and cheapest way is to just take the exhaust can off (as long as the cat is still in place).

It's not much louder..just a bit deeper..and will do no harm to the bike..I've been running like this for about 5yrs...the cat works like a big muffler.

Here's a pic of mine..btw it's a Roadster..not a Rockster..they are almost the same...I think the Rockster is the bigger 'chick magnet'..

The can removal is a good idea... i ordered 10 led pods (each pod has 5 leds) i then angled 2 at the big shock in front, put two under the front fender, two along the sides of the bike under the tank and under the rear fairing, then two under the tail... LOOOKS AMAZING!! i will try and snap some pics of it tonight for you! I have done 12 bikes with led already from rockets to Harleys so i have alot of experence.. best advise is DO NOT BUY CHEAP LIGHTS and sodder everything! shrink wrap shrink wrap shrink wrap... position the lights and test them with a 9v battery when you get the right look then just use 3m double sided tape (outdoor holds better) and then wire it all up!

I wired a few blue LEDs to my 'R: one on each cooler, one on each side right above the foot rests, and one under each rear quarter panel. Haven't hard-wired them in yet (still using a 9V connection when necessary). I'm too afraid of leaving them switched on and finding my battery dead the next morning. Plus, blue ground effect lighting is illegal here in NJ, so I only hook it up for show.

I'll see if I can snap some pics tonight.

My harley has over 350 leds on it... i have left them on for 2 weeks and not a problem... they use almost no electricty! you will be safe. i just tell the cops that i will do anything to make myself more visable!

Here's my bike lit up in the shed (sorry for the poor shots - didn't feel like wheeling it out and finding a better 'studio' ) -
