I Did A Blonde Thing

  •  First let me say it has been a while and I hope I have not missed anything  good on here.

     Second this is a little laugh at my expencise.  I desided on the Squaw  (my 2016 Dark Horse) to put smoked lenses on the turn signals, both front and back.  I thought that  saftey orange thing just looked out of place on my almost totaly black bike.  Any way go to the local  after market motorcycle place and pick up four smoked color lences to do this with.  Get back home to the garage and find out that the turn signal assembly is a solid unit of led lights.  If busted or broke you replace the entire assembly.  Well Damn, there went that idea.
