What they are talking about is the all caps typing. The world is way past the days of people being lazy and typing in upper case. All Caps is considered Yelling or shouting on forums.
Now down to your questions, the superHawk rear fender and plate holder can easily be trimmed down to a nub that will just allow the current plate holder to be left or you can spend the $$ and buy a kit. Use sheet metal sheers or hack saw to trim the current fender down.
There are numerous makers of flush light kits, just browse the site and use the search engine to get ideas on what you want to do. Who knows you may discover something newer than all of us have done and share it back to the site. I myself installed the bulb Lockhardt Phillips oval lights years ago.
Welcome aboard!

you guys are tuff for a guy's first post. give him a little space before you jump down his throat. take a vicodin. But then again, if he's really a five star kid, maybe he should be expected to be perfect right off..........or is this some type of initiation exercise?

DANG! what a hard bunch of guys, fellow member asking for help & gets slammed for typing in UPPER CASE. Personnally i like it, helps old farts like me that was riding motorbikes before alot you were out of your strollers to be able to read without putting on the cheeters. Anyways as to the original thread, I started with the old hack saw to remove most of fender. Just take it easy. Eventually progressed to undertail & fabricated licence plate bracket. Good luck on any venture you decide.

What color is the bike? (some here think red is the fastest. BUT IT IS NOT) What's on it now? For the tail go with the mototech clones on ebay. For about a bill the rear gets cleaned up and the turn signals are integrated. I'm in Glenville all the time, see ya around

Medium size Lockhardts fit perfect, good luck finding dual fillament for running lights...i found the last pair in AZ as far as i know..another thong i has to trim down the inside part of the fairing to make the fit. they were an older type of lockhardts, but look sweet.. good luck. theres lots of posts here by me and many others about all the things you want to do and LOTS more.
