HI guys I had Robert from XBLIGHTS build me a custom light and just got done installing it, it is so bright my son said I am going to cause a accident, I also installed a strobe brake light flasher and the tail light has a new style clear lens, I am blown away by the looks. pictures will be coming next month. Mike | ||

+1 mine is brighter than my friends GS500 headlight. | ||
| Strmvt |
Mike what strobe flasher did you use I'm looking at a cpl myself | ||

Robert does excellent work. I have a beautiful example of his handiwork on Loretta. He's been asking for pictures, but I have 2 problems. 1) The light is too bright to photograph, I've tried. 2) Too cold after sunset to ride. All I know is he made me a fine light for a fair price that is the core of the single biggest mod to my 1125R. Thanks again Robert, I'll try to get the light out tomorrow. Here's one of the best I have.  Zack | ||

Strmvt I got it from www.customdynamics.com and is made by Radiantz and has selectable flashing and made only for leds more than 2 watts will fry it, but looks awesome when strobing. Mike | ||

Looks good Zack hope I can get a picture, I was going to try tonight to take pictures at a distance but it is raining so will have to try another night. Mike | ||

Thanks guys!  I really appreciate all the positive feedback! Mike, I can't wait to see some pics. I'm curious to see how much that blue will stand out at night, I know with the brakes applied it won't be that noticeable, but when its just running lights I think its going to look really neat!! Zack, thats a pretty damn cool picture if I do say so myself! well providing thats you on the bike :-) That would actually be perfect to use with a review (wink, wink) Nick, How do you like your custom design? I can't recall hearing your thoughts on her? Once again guys, its been a pleasure working with yall!! Thank You!! -Robert xblights@yahoo.com www.xblights.com P.S. for anyone interested her is a rough pic I snapped of Baggermikes light before final build, its just the running lights. its a cross pattern with a single blue LED in the center. its hard to photograph, but this is the best I could get..... (the blue isnt picked up too well by the camera, but it looks really bad ass!!!)  | ||

Mike if you don't mind me asking, about how much and how long did it take to get yours? I love that cross as the running light and just might have to get something sort of like it. Timmy | ||

Hey Timmy, just replied to your email. let me know if you didn't get it, as sometimes I have issues with my email account. (it will send like normal, then come back about 4 days later saying not able to send! when I can log into my personal email and send the exact email and it will go right through  ) Thanks again! -Robert www.xblights.com | ||

I would like to say that with the brake lights clear lens matching the clear lens of the tail lights with electropods on the turn signals stocks with my saddlebags and tail bag really make the bike look awesome from behind, I got a lighted license plate frame coming in a couple of days and will be taking more pictures of the rear and the front hid lights, I hope they come out good so I can post them, the lights are so bright it might be hard for night shots but have tried to take some and will be taking some day time shots as well with the hope they will show up better. Mike | ||
| Rah7777777 |
What type of lighted license plate frame did you go with? Ive been thinking about one of those for my bike. and yes, yes.....lets get some pictures, shall we  | ||
| Bueller_bjorn |
just couldn't resist, ordered me a clear set with no signal. now i just need a nice clean plate bracket that holds the stock signals. does anyone know if the stock XB brackets hold the 1125 signals? i like the stock signals just hate the extra long plate holder. | ||
| Baggermike |
Bueller the stock XBR license plate holder will take the stock signals. Robert just sent two emails to you one now and one this morning, I will also send the review again. Mike | ||
| Rah7777777 |
Thanks Mike, today has been pretty busy so I havent been able to reply! But I will right now........  | ||
| Rah7777777 |
Bueller_bjorn ; started on her last night!!!! | ||
| Bueller_bjorn |

Just added some 1157 LEDs ($16/pair at Auto Zone)to the tail lights of my bike. Added little tubes to each side of the main tail light lens to hold the hard wired bulbs to activate only with brakes. By far not greatest looking but keeping with the form follows function theme and easily removed for any reason. Very bright in the dark inside of the garage even in daylight. Pictures are a little blurred, sorry guys but wrong settings on the digital camera. Bob   (Message edited by bob_thompson on April 16, 2008) | ||

Bob you can get a pair of electropods for you bike cheaper and better, they flash when you hit your brakes and come with sticky tape of you can mount them with plastic tie wraps which is what I did on the turn signals stocks, if you want they have three styles brake lights, brake and running lights, and brake running and turn signals, there is another type to bur forget the name and start at around 25 dollars. I just got an email from www.cyclegadgets.com on being rear ended by a car being like the second most accident happening to us bikers. also www.customdynamics.com has lots of lighting products. | ||
| Bob_thompson |

| Baggermike |
Bob this website has lots of good motorcycle accessories, some are expensive and can be found else were but they have the most products for bikes out of all the other websites. www.aerostich.com | ||

Hey Zac4Mac, just wanted to say thanks! just got your email! I will get that review posted in the next few days!! THanks again! | ||
| Zac4mac |
Sorry it took so long Robert. Glad I can cross off that "to do". Z | ||
| Rah7777777 |
HAHA, I know exactly what you mean. But really, not a problem! nothing good happens in a hurry! Thanks again! | ||
