No sliders yet. Got any suggestions?

I would go with the GB Racing package. Go through Rider's Discount on this page for a good price on them. I had them on my 07 and though I can't vouch for how they work in a crash, there seems to be a great amount of protection with them.

I called Mr. Watsen yesterday and spoke to him a bit about the sulphur yellow color for the flush mounts. He said he will only do it if he gets a piece of the bike to color match. I saw that you were looking to do that. Do you still anticipate being able to help him out? Otherwise, I'll try to see if my local dealership has any way to help me with getting a piece so we can get moving with Watsen's! I'd be more than willing to help out in any way I can so that we can hurry the process of getting the blinkers manufactured. They are the single best cosmetic (and functional) mod there is, IMO.

Let me know if/how I can help! Hope you're still able to enjoy SOME riding up in Canada!!!

Love my sulphur yellow and can't wait to get more stuff on it!

I've contacted them and offered the seat cowl, which is 5 minutes from them. I haven't got a response. I'll try calling tomorrow to see what's up. The wife wants a set as well.

OK, just got off the phone with Mr. Watsen, and as soon as the seat cowl arrives at the dealer he will pick it up and start the process for colour matching the signals. He said it will probably be early in the new year before they are ready.

The mailman came today!

Thank-you Mr. Watsen! Paint matches perfectly, and they're very high quality. I'll post pics after she gets them put on.

Sorry for the crappy pictures but I threw on my Watsens and carbon fibre heal guards in my parking garage this morning.

Color match looks to be spot on so far though I haven't taken the bike out in the sunlight yet.
