Probably funnier if you don’t live in New Jersey.

I lived in Jersey for a while (40 yrs) so I felt compelled to write.

If I could make one simple suggestion…..wait for it …here it comes…

Drop the head light down some

I had a hard time finding a good mount for mine so i bought a top triple tree from e-bay and cut it down to the fork clamps and gauge mount holes. It worked out really well

Other than that , great job.
