No its not unfortunately.  The spare taillights I got from you with the spares might fit and has the indicator stubs.  I may have to drill holes.  Is there a model XS apart from the RH with a black fender?

Hi all.  Now owning the RH, I have a question.  Given the problems sourcing a rear taillight/indicator assembly and the need to get the bike on the road.  It really needs to be ridden to sort out any problems.  Up and down the driveway isnt enough.  What sort of after market taillight, conjoined/seperate indicator set up is avilable and easy to fit without having to drill holes?  And are there any photos available to show how it all might look.  Pissing me off being so close.
Thanks
Carsten

I have a good relationship with my inspector, so mirrors not a problem (they are there after all), and besides who's to say I didn't swap them after the inspection. ssshhhh..Gold can proved to be a write off when I pulled it apart to inspect....baffle good, end caps good, but alloy case worn thin and some potential problem with holes comming up soon. So its pull the guts out and put into another can, pop rivits, new wrapping  & fanny's your uncle.

will be interested to see if they allow the end bar mirrors,,, this day and age and all,

was something a while ago about them up here, not being of original design or spec,

as for your exhaust can, why not use your gold one and put a new inner in it,,,would look good
