    confused

    I have searched the forum and found threads that tell several ways to install a CB radio into the M1009. I would like to hook up directly to the battery, some say you can some say you can't. Would a positive connection to the rear battery and a negative connection to the body work?aua

    Multipurpose antenna stowage I don't always have the antenna's mounted on my 09, so I decided I needed some where to stow them. I came up with a piece of 2 inch PVC pipe ith a capped end. I can also hang rucksacks and other things on it. Of course it will be painted.

    cps240 the LED's I used I got off E-BRAY for about $7. They are small cylinders with a threaded bolt on the back, they are roughly 1/2 inches long. They stick out a little but it doesnt bother me. I believe Roboskid picked his up at a local motorcycle shop.

    License plate light, I stole this idea from RoboSkid, Thanks man, this is awesome! I used motorcycle license plate bolts with L.E.D.'s in them. The license plate is magnetic and the power cable is on a disconnect.
