Notice Anything Different ?

hmmmmmm, so you notice anything different in the picture below? it's not really that big of a deal but just a little something that i think looks a little better. Thats ok, it probably doesn't jump out at you, take your time, study the pic and reflect on it, see if you can figure it out.

Something like that is not real noticeable. I missed it the first time I looked. You should have given it a different file name.

they were extremely easy to take off, they're held on with the same double sided tape that they have always used on the tank badges. With my bike being fairly new they came off without leaving any residue on the forks. I was able to grab them by hand and twist them off by wiggling them and turning them in a clockwise - counter clockwise rotation. Took less then two minutes to get both of them off. I just think it looks cleaner without them.

I'm just not that worried about it, especially from side traffic. Having my taillight bulb burn out at night, that would worry me, side marker doesn't.
