LED lights

[Kwikasfuki]

You can get different coloured LED lights off eBay. You can easily replace the ones at the front of the bike with these.

The above link is for blue ones. You can get green ones. I believe in the UK anything but Red is legal. Even Blue as long as its not flashing (not 100%) but as of yet the police haven't pulled me over.

I've had both green and blue LED lights on and you are definitely more visible to cars. The reason for replacing the green with blue was after my neighbour said "green means go".

I got the 4 LED version of these: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-X-9-LED-HID-Xenon-501-W5W-sidelight-bulbs-Blue_W0QQitemZ260547904762QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item3ca9dd84fa

I assume the 9 LED is better

And this is how they look:

Previous LEDs died within a year, so I've paid a little more and gone for a better quality pair. Brighter too.

The 9 LED would give less light as the input is the same. Who manufactures the ones in the last pic?

Interested in doing this mod. Is it straight forward?

A doddle. Remove the fairing at the front of the bike under the forks. That will give access to the holder for the LEDs. Replace. Easy

Only gotcha is that the LED must be inserted the correct way.

I installed Hyper white from the US, i put them under the mirror box, expensive but extremely bright, draws only 0.25 amp. I switch them to modulating mode when filtering through traffic, cars can always see me.

Liking those hyperlights. Easy to install? You can never have enough visibility.

[frenchbiker]

Yes, fairly easy, once you locate all accessories lead and corresponding connectors. Just time consuming.

[Kwikasfuki]

The hyperlights come to $163 shipped to the UK. Add in VAT and customs it'll come to £130.
I think I'll but a pair although I'm not too keen on the switch

[frenchbiker]

It is not cheap, yes, but really good ole' USA made product, very good quality, excellent customer service, and you ll be amazed how bright they really are. I opted for the modulator ones, I leave it steady when riding and make'em modulate when I filter through, it works well.
The toggle switch works well, sturdy and waterproof. Bike is in the shop now but when it is back next week, I ll post pictures of installation.

[Kwikasfuki]

Which ones do you recommend? The modulating ones for the rear?

I think I'll order then front and rear this week.

[frenchbiker]

For the rear it modulates, but you can chose by cutting the green loop wire ( you ll see what i mean  when you get it). If you leave the green wire alone it flashes constantly in super bright red when you press any brake. If you cut it, you short the modulation, it flashes 5 sec then steady; i have mine on constant modulation. it is really bright red, you ll be amazed.
