Having put my baby to bed, and now i am sat with a brew before going to work,  a thought just came to me......

I dont ride my bike in the dark  :no: (scared of the dark) so the LEDs were pointless.. Lol

Oh well.....

There is, and as long as they are not flashing, or otherwise inter fear with the white light of the headlights, they are ok....

2x Mot
1x VOSA
Various traffic plod

All agree and not a problem.  :yes:

Happy days.

Put simply, as long they are static lights they are ok, they must not under any circs be able to strobe or pulsate.

Do you drive with them on?

They're a bit chav-boyracer-fast'n'furious but I have to say I kinda like some of them, even thought about putting some on my black beauty.

Have you seen them angel eyes and HID projectors you can get? They look pretty bling.

I'd quite like the red knight rider bar and the led kit with the breathing mode. Be a great laugh at bike meets.

Yes i drive with them on.  :yes:

Some like to have day glow haz strips and stuff,
Some like to have hiviz jackets and yellow lids,
Some like nothing at all.

It's all about personal preference and taste,

I prefer a few little things to personalise my bikes, and i dont have any taste.... :no:

Some people will like it and say so,
Some will secretly like it but wont say incase they loose kudos......  :whistling:
Some wont like it...

I like it, and don't really care what any one else thinks... Lol

Happy days.

If he turns up to The Belfry in it :eek: guess who's GTR's will be found swinging in the morning breeze from the hook of his hiab 40ft up in the air  :sweatdrop:  :surrender:

As this is the "GTR" forum i will stick to posting a pic or two of my bike...

If it were the "Kick ass truck" forum i would flood it with pics of my truck... :punk:

Also, as i am no doubt on thin ice with Plod, VOSA, Traffic Wombles, Council Parking Inforsment people and the list goes on..... It would be like painting a target on my ass really.... :whistling:

You will be happy to know, my truck also has many LED lights though.... :clap: :clap: :clap:

Happy days.

On the old GTR I used to have blue static LED lights. Problem is that the driver not paying attention all of a sudden sees blue lights in the rear mirror and starts to panic.

I got rid as I didn't want anyone to crash in panic.

But it was alright for them to crash as long as they didn't panic?  :whistling:
