Da Bird

This is my 'Bird with a blue Fabrii double bubble screen and clear replacements indicators and LED tail lights from Clear Alternatives (www.clearalternatives.com (http://www.clearalternatives.com/)) .
Not much to say about the screen apart from "it was a bitch to fit" and took me a bit longer than anticipated. It wont be coming off in a hurry. Gives a bit more wind protection than the standard screen and most of the bugs end up splattered on my shoulders.
The clear indicators were a breeze to fit, as was the tail light. Just a matter of taking a couple of the rear fairing panels off for 10 minutes while taking out the old tail light and fitting the new one in place.
The indicator lenses come with orange bulbs, however I purchased chrome covered orange bulbs so you cant actually tell there are bulbs in there.
Some of the newer lights that Clear Alternatives stock actually have integrated indicators on the tail light. Just depends on the model of bike you have.
Shipping was fast (within a week from the USA) and was FREE. Not sure how I managed that but there was no shipping fee so that was a bonus and of course, with the high exchange rate at the moment, its a good time to get these lights if you are looking at doing it.
