Talking Just installed a 19 tooth front sprocket, LED idiot lights, and aftermarket pipes

I just installed a 19 tooth front sprocket on my 2004 Triumph Bonneville America. It had a 17 tooth on there when I got it, but I always found myself searching for that elusive gear at highway speeds. It is much better now as the RPM's have dropped significantly. I also installed the LED idiot lights and my aftermarket pipes. I now drive around with a huge grin on my face as I love the sound of the bike now. I have no idea what the pipes are as I bought them from a guy off of craigslist for 100 bucks and they have no markings on them. The baffle in them is a removable straight through baffle design.

Do the LED lights make that much of a difference?

LED lights

Absolutely. During the daytime in the bright sun you can barely see the idiot lights. Now I can glance down at them in direct sunlight and tell if it is lit or not. Of the 4 lights you have you only change 3 of them. You wouldn't want your highbeams idiot light to be that bright driving down the road at night. So you would change your oil pressure, flashers, and neutral lights. Definitely a nice to have upgrade.
