Added M-Blaze disc LED bar end turn signals and blacked out upper forks. Similar to what WillRide has already done to his Scout.

Yes they are visible front and rear. I kept the stock rear turn signals intact. In my mind they are adequate for replacing the front signals but not the rear. My riding buddies did say that they could easily see them from the rear for what that's worth. There are 2 LEDS facing forward and only one facing rear with the M-Blaze signals.
More information is in this thread.

You can get unit that ties into the factory brake light but my understanding is that it doesn't work with the canbus system yet.

That seat looks awesome! Any issues with the leds? Were they plug and play?

Plug and play!
Above the light on my bike and on some other bikes some of us have added vintage horns. Mine is an old 6 volt horn that was cleaned up a bit. It turns out that 80 or 90 years ago somebody made a horn that is plug and play with a 2015 Scout.

Nice-- really love the seat, is it more or less comfortable than the stock one?

I think most folks are very happy with the stock seat. I probably am a little bit heaver than the average Scout rider a smidge over 200lbs. As long as a smidge = the weight of an average 5 year old. I liked the look of the stock seat a lot. My backside didn't like the stock seat. After an hour I was less than happy with the stock seat. The tractor seat is working for me... so far. I have about 400 on it and I like it a lot. I'm just not sure if my ass makes the seat look small. Maybe I should ask someone.
Your reupholstered seat looks pretty sweet too, how's the ride? You have a pretty clear vision with your Scout. It's awesome. While I really like most of the things that you're doing. That Dirty Bird fairing is just not my taste. To each his own. And who am I to judge I've got a giant stupid chrome horn front and center on my Scout.
I'm always looking forward to see what you are doing to your Scout. Keep the picture coming.
