1. I didn't have a rear light at all, so i took care of that sunday. I bought two small trailer marker lights (one orange, and one red) they are like poke out an inch and come to a point and the bottom is like a circle. i sealed the lens with silicone so water doesn't get in there then wired it up, and they work great and looks sweet too. i'll try to get a pick of them during the day then at dusk when the lights are on.
2. Think it would be hard to make a headlight guard? I think they look cool. like the ones that have like "chicken wire" over them. any ideas on how to mount it up? i wouldn't mind if they were somewhat functional, but if not they would still look cool if i can figure out how to make'em.
3. i'm still fruitlessly searchin for a quiet pipe, cobra doesn't make quiet series for my bike and i'm not too sure a big red muffler would mount up. would a spark arrestor quite it down significantly or no?

a spark arrestor is basickly just a few peices of window screen or a honda one has two parts, one portion that swirls the exaust then another that sends it straight again its a weird setup, as for a sparky i dont know if that would quiet it down or not probly not i know my stock one used to have the bottom rotted out of it and i welded a patch over the hole and its the worst thing i did to it. it went from being able to pull wheelies in 3rd and 4th to 2nd sometimes 3rd. you dont know how bad i wanna rip the patch off it!

yeah i have found new hampshire is tighter then mass. when my cousin and i rode, hes from mass and his rm had a shorty on it, but the only thing that saved us from the fine was that the tag was ripped off and he shut it of soon enough the fish cops didnt hear it. it would have sucked to get ropef for something as dumb as a modifyed exhaust.
