Member Contributer wooly72 Posted July 24, 2008 Member Contributer Share Posted July 24, 2008 A while back I ordered a set of 12 red LED's from Sic-Lites. I put 3 in the lower cowl, 3 on each side of the radiator vents, and three under the rear. Lots of tedious wiring, but nothing too complicated. Ran them all to a terminal strip, hooked up an inline fuse and a switch and was done. Fun to ride at night and am able to keep them on for a few hours when parked at bike nights. They use barely any juice at all. Plug in the battery tender when I get home and the green light comes on before I'm done wiping her down after the ride.

Member Contributer magellan Posted July 24, 2008 Member Contributer Share Posted July 24, 2008 I'm pretty conservative about bling unless it's functional, but I'd guess this makes you a lot more visible at night. I give it a :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Ryanme17 Posted July 24, 2008 Member Contributer Share Posted July 24, 2008 I like the ones in the radiator vents the best. You ride with them on for visibility? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RRW Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Phones are for talking. Camera's are for taking pictures. Lot's of confusion about that in the past few years.If you get a camera, spring for a tripod too. It makes those long shutter speeds doable. I like the mod, btw. :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer wooly72 Posted July 24, 2008 Author Member Contributer Share Posted July 24, 2008 Thanks guys. I do find more people looking at me at night as I ride by, so I believe it helps visibility. I have to try for some better pics tonight. Don't have a tripod, but I will figure something out.
