I'm wondering if this is a good idea? IE: do they mount well, are they easy to unstall, do they look totally sweet?..etc.

I Put them on my old 50. Not the conventional led string of lights though. I used an extra set of DOT blinkers.
Do they mount well..... YEP. Plenty of room.
Easy to install..... YEP. If you have some basic skills. The string lights usually come with clips but I think most people use zip ties. There are other wires in the path that you can buddy the lights with. Ground the black wire, tap a power source, install a switch.
Do they look totally sweet? Depends who you ask

Check to make sure they're legal in your state. In CA: not at all. I know several people with illegal lighting who've never been ticketed for it, but that doesn't mean it couldn't happen.

Thanks for the linkage Lil Buddy! The install on mine was relatively easy too, the wiring was a cinch, it just took a while to rout all the lights and fasten them down. Honestly the bottom panel strips block a lot of the light because my friend had some put on her Vespa S and they are a little brighter than mine even though there's not quite as many.
