How does yours fit under your jacket? Are the vests bulky at all?

Fits under my jacket just fine. Very thin. Soak it in cool water for a bit and blot it dry with a towel (it will be damp but not soaked). I use it for riding and when drag racing in the car. I have a hit-air textile airbag jacket. If you have a cycle world near by definitely check it out.

Yeah for the longest time I told myself that it looked fine but every time I looked at it they seemed to stick out like a sore thumb. I got these off ebay for around $10 with free shipping. The item number is 111341577903 and I would recommend them.

I road the living shit out of my bike! Hit my first bird and turtle. Missed a horse. That's about it.

Do I dare ask if you were still on the road while you hit all those animals?

Haha oh ya. Welch is a scary place. I am afraid to rip that road.... I think recreational horseback riding should have lights on the horses when on the road lol !

I took mine out for a nice 120 mile ride along some back hills with 3 other friends in a facebook bike group.

2014 fz9. 2012 fz6, a B King, and my 2013 fz8

I did a custom retrofit in my headlight,

Mini D2S 3.0 Projectors, E46 extended shrouds, Phillips 85122+ bulbs, 50 watt ballasts, blacked out, and running light bulb put in the top spot.

What did you use? White out?

I used a tire paint pen that you can buy at auto stores. They sell them online for much cheaper ~$8-10 bucks. You can find Chinese shippers that will sell them for .99 each but you would probably have to wait 3 weeks.

i didn't use a bmw projector... I used a Morimoto Mini D2S 3.0 and E46 shroud which is the plastic cover to the projector.

I took some pictures of My completed retrofit!

Mini D2S 3" 3.0 Projetors
Phillips 85122+ D2S Bulb
Morimoto 35 Watt Ballast
E46 Extended Shroud
Morimoto Amber 80mm LED Angel Eye
Amber Halogen Running light bulb
Separate Switch to turn on/off the projector, so the angel eye is on alone

All part were sourced from www.TheRetrofitSource.com

There was a bit more cutting and mounting involved than a normal BKMoto Kit because it is a slightly larger projector and shroud. But the output allows for much more foreground and a bit wider than the BKMoto kit.
