Thanks everyone!! The turn signals are stock BDM I just added a Radiantz LED brake light string in a clear tube to match the turn signals. I have Jakes Wire Plus kit so no more EHC issues. Wire Plus sold me a diode module to hook up to the turn signals + LED + ground.

I only have the battery tender on if I'm not riding for a week or more.

Here are some more pic's, I'm pointing to the Wire Plus diode module, and you can see my Wire Plus 374 kit I got from Jake :up:

how did you stick the light tube under there, "gorilla glue"?
Some Radiantz led kits come with 3m double sided tape and an activator pack. For anyone considering adding an LED strip like this I might recommend getting one that allows you to wire each half so only that side will flash with your turns, not the whole thing. The folks at Custom Dynamics can fix you up with Radiantz products (and others) like that and pretty much whatever other LED needs you have. I replaced my front turns on my previous ride with an LED strip I got from them that I mounted around the forks.

Thanks a lot for your feedback, I will definitely take your advice and go for it, I will take the 13" total length with amber on both sides and clear tube

Lebo, I'm not sure you can go with the amber sides (for the rear). I wanted to do the same thing and when i talked to radaitz, they said becuase we run turn/brake/tail lights in the 2 signals they didn' think it would work.

I ended up doing what marco was suggesting, 13 inch clear tubing on the rear fender. Thw full 12 inches or so light up with the normal running lights, then split down the middle for the turns. They actually wired it up for me to my specifiacations. Looks really trick......only problem is that they're DOT.

Beast30 : I just ordered a 14 3/8" long strip, with amber on the sides and middle running and break.

I will take the power for the signals from the front circuit, runing will be direct from the battery and brake from the brake signal.

All will be via relays as not to overload the EHC.

Just ordered a 9 1/2" one from radiantz.
They said it should ship within two weeks.
I went with run turn and brake split down the middle for turn signals.
I'll post some pics and a how to when it gets here if it works the way i think it will. :flag:
