Installed a 13" Cee Bailey's clear windshield. Had to replace the 11" Cee Bailey's since the wind was hitting the top of my helmet and causing turbulence. I'm 5-8 and have the stock seat. Initial impressions are very good. Seems the wind is now over the helmet and the radio is clearer. Full test tomorrow at highway speeds. Will sell the 11" shield if anyone is looking for one.
New Bridgestone OEM rear tire (18k miles). Laid the big girl on her side to do the deed. Worked like a charm.
Dug down to the air box to kill the "check engine" light... intake air temp sensor came unplugged.

She all better now.

Added some LED running lights and swapped out the passenger pegs out for some GW floorboards for the wifey.
And now back to our thread....
Today I continued the mods to Isleen:
- Rewired the voltmeter to the battery.
- Hard pointed the Battery Tender pigtail - all these batteries doing strange things scared me....
- Installed a Whelen ION LED bar up front that moves with the forks. (Similar to what Steve 0080 has....or had.)

- Installed an 'older' Whelen TIR3 accessory brake light in "deep format" that actually does go 3 quick flashes then goes steady.

Waiting on the USB charging port for the left cubby and a few other enhancements.
Discovered that I could raise my windscreen up - it was at the lowest setting!
I want to put some white LED eyebrows on her as well.
Got the MBL risers to put in....I'm a bit hesitant on those right now - just personal skill level and comfort taking the bike further apart.
Also reinstalling the Smuggler seat and trunk. I really like that low look in the back.
Having fun with my dear Isleen.
Cheers,
Steve
