Headlight Module?

[DragonStang]

Has anyone installed a headlight module on their BD?
I mainly ride during the day after being t-boned by a Doe and somehow didn't get killed one night coming home from work.
So naturally what do all the cages say when they kill a roder?
"I didn't see him"
So I want to put one of those modules on my bike. Anyone have any experience putting them on or have a how to?

Excuse my ignorance but, what module are you talking about?

Are you talking about LED lights? If so, check this out: http://www.bigdogbiker.com/forums/ignition-electronics-batteries/69269-picture-speaks-townsend-words.html

You see Harleys with them all the time. You see their headlight flash repeatedly as they go down the hwy. It interrupts the signal and causes the flashing. Annoying as hell to cages but they see you.
They have a night sensor also to turn the light back to solid.

That sure sounds somethimg to screw the EHC. It will be busy figuring whether your low beam is working or not and witching to high beam.. Lol.

No actually that's not what it does at all. It isn't switching between low and high beams.
But yes, always a concern messing with the BD electronics.

Yep, but EHC does change to high beam when it sees low beam not working. That's why I thought it's gonna fuck it up.

It will not work, I've tried it several times; the EHC can't handle the voltage interruption. Each time I tried it I was very fast to shut it off before it caused irreparable damage to the EHC.

And there you have it, good info Rick:2thumbs:

General consensus awhile back - don't try it as it won't work.

 

[DragonStang]

Damn. Thanks for the info guys. Just trying to keep my wife safe when we are out there.
So I guess LED Then?
I've heard to not do HID.
