Did you drill some holes and set them in from behind? |

Yes, I had to drill the holes then the lights mount from the top side and have a nut in the back to hold them in... |

Very nice, neat and clean. Great job! Where did you get the LEDs? |

How bright are they without any type of a refelection behind them? This you can get a picture of them on during the day and at Night. I always wanted to do some sort of custom directions but they always seam very dim, and hard to see. |

There normally are not any reflecters behind LEDs. At least there is none in my LED blinkers and they are bright as hell. (Message edited by cereal on August 25, 2006) |

They are just as bright as the LED signals I took off my bike.... They are noticeable during the day and way bright at night...I'll try to get some pix, but all I have is my camera phone so the timing if kinda tough... |

Hey anyone ever take off that plastic fender mounted to the swingarm, I guess it just keeps the shock and fan clean. Would look pretty good without it though |

A couple of the guys I ride with have removed it...I will next time the rear wheel is off...It does clean up the tail nicely... |

If you remove the hugger, find some other way to protect your shock from all the dirt and grit the rear tire kicks up or it'll wear prematurely. Surely you don't think Buell put the hugger there by mistake, do you? |

Thats EXACTLY what I want to do. Where did you get the LED's? |

|
I got the LED's at Radio Shack 1.98 each... |

Wow I'll have to check that out, I like that idea. I have the LED taillight conversion from American Sport Bike and I've been told it's hard to see my turn signals when it's dark out. Probably when it's daytime too. So I think those LEDs you've installed would be a good "in addition to" idea. Not to mention easy. Sam |

BTW can you post a pic of them from behind? Sam |

did you have to put a special flasher on the led turnsignals to prevent it from fast flashing? thanks |

Reducati, I was already running LED signals so I have a load equalizer installed, however if I was to do it again I would just get the LED relay from American Sportbike... |

Yep, I use the LED Relay from American. It works just fine. BTW, very nice. I seen this same kinda thing for the Japanese bikes as well. What was your total time consumed?

Dmextreme, maybe 2 hours including runnin' to Radio Shack.... I copied the idea from a friend that has done similar to his R6... |
