F3 Hack

[zuni]

On the way home to Jacksonville after picking up our new F3s from Central Florida PowerSports we ran into a couple of heavy downpours. The bike performed flawlessly and I was never concerned about stability. My wife who was following a few car lengths behind me was not as calm as I disappeared from view in each heavy rain cell. I am working on a couple of options to add some additional lighting to improve viability. With our RT I had several places to add led strips that were almost hidden but visible when on. The third brake light from Custom Dynamics also helped. As a quick fix for the F3 I cut open the reflector holder for the license plate light. A few minutes with the dremel and now there is one additional running light.

quick and easy. If it is the same license plate light housing with reflector as in the past RS/RSS/ST then you can buy replacements set up for that on ebay and amazon..

Any and all extra lights are a good idea IMO.
