There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Does yours have the reflectors and bulb sockets and switch and wiring? If not those parts can be bought from BRP or other places. If you can do the work yourself the cost might not be bad, but if you have a stealership do it you'll have a heart attack when you get the bill. I am very happy with the dealership parts and service departments here in Tulsa, Oklahoma. They seem to be the exception from what I've read here on this forum.

In my 50+ years of driving cars, trucks and motorcycles.......probably several hundred different models because I worked for a rental car company for a while.......
I have never seen "fog lights" that really did any good in fog.
Might be somewhat useful under normal conditions though.

Oh, they do exist, yungun', lol.
Quick examples - there are others.

However - unless you do the work to retrofit effective units onto yer trike, none of the current 'kit' offerings are worth a damn as dedicated, effective fogs. But - as a Frontal visibility aid, sure. To me, though, that is simply a waste of a lighting position just begging fer improvement.
FWIW - I went with the X5 as they were a steal @ $10 in a TRS Closeout sale, and they were just sitting in my shop waiting for an application.
FWIW #2 - any of those would work fine as DRL's and if you need to venture out in fog you need to drive very slowly anyway or you'll overdrive any of them.
FWIW #3 - you can apply Laminix film to render the fog-preferred ~3000K color temperature if ye wished.

Howdy;
Then yer in luck - as just aboot anything that fits will do.
Nothing wrong with aesthetics - the problems arise when folks have unrealistic expectations from poorly-engineered / misrepresented products.
Everyone is different; I respect that. I'm just a function-over-form kinda feller, is all. I abhor squandering a genuine opportunity for improvement over 'bling'.
Best o' luck. As others have stated - with some homework and due-diligence research on the various parts sites, ye can gather the requisite OEM part numbers to add what components are missing, and get a ballpark feel fer the total cost and effort involved. Then you can decide if it's worth it - to you.
