I broke down and purchased FIAMM highway blaster horns high and low tone and a set of H7 PIAA super white bulbs from Amazon. About $83.00 for both items add this to my Caterpillar o-rings for throttle control and my mod pile is building. ;D

Me too - I bought the Australian airfilter setup from a dealer in Perth. AU$57.60/US$60.88. I figure that even if they have a little more maintenance, the foam sock filters will mean I never have to think about trying to find an air filter in a country where Yamaha dealers, let alone S10 parts, could be scarce.

I'm from Perth and meeting some of my family in Bali in November - my nephew will be loaded up with my air filter and a bunch of Wasp parts :p

I'm holding off on my big expense until late July and that is the Pelican cases and rack. I'm going to start picking some smaller items, riser blocks, fender extenda, LED tail and brake flasher and some other goodies.

Mine are about to ship. I bet I'll be in more pain than you are. You may need a bandaid, but I'll need a full body bandage. R

Good stuff. Yeah, the mail strike is annoying but I've actually been getting pretty good service. Just got my new bike tires in from Edmonton, and something else ... can't remember now. They don't seem to be as nasty about it as they have been in the past. PO is still the cheapest way to get stuff up here and around here, so I use it a lot. They're not too bad if you're not in a hurry. I love their tracking. they tell you when they get it, and they tell you when it's delivered, and call it tracking. Good luck with your stuff. R

That's not bad looking Mellow good find. I wonder if it would affect the light pattern (shouldn't) and also would some smaller stuff get in through the holes. Of course no protection is even worse.

Hi sfc67
Where did you order the wind deflectors from and did they have it in stock? I can find it anywhere around here and my brother who lives in MD is coming to visit me if they have it in stock I'd like to get it to him so he can bring it to me ..

Just ordered some Eastern Beaver goodies, Posi Locks, Posi Taps, & Posi Fuses. Decided to go with the 3 circuit solution harness with one fuse unswitched and a double horn harness. I'm skipping aux lights for now and instead went with PIAA super brite H7 bulbs. All the info I have read about LED lights you really need to spend the coin for good lights and stay away from the stuff made in China. I didn't realize how much goes into good LED lights, just can't justify spending 400-600 dollars on them but I have a better appreciation why they cost so much. That's it for now.
