Fitted LEDs To Fairing

These are neat and now I have LEDs all round.

Cheap from flea bay, and realy bright.


Sharpen up the bike and gives it a modern look in my opinion.











So now I have integrated clear tail light, tidied up tail with stainless mini under tray, and flush mounts on the fairings.


Much tidier I think.


Now I need a single seat cowl.


The quest never ends!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those look real good, Kenmore. Did you need to add resistors to make them work? Are they pretty bright in daylight? I like those flush mount turn signals but worry that they aren't visible enough looking directly at the front of the bike.
I think there's a red seat cowl on Ebay right now.

I fitted an led flasher can.

They seem to be bright enough .


Wifey says that you can see them from the front o.k.


Even with the ugly old ones I always assumed that tin tops didn't see them and I am super cautious in traffic to the extent that I am about to fit a compact air horn as well after nearly being knocked of my bike by a Mr Magoo in a tin top.


Every little bit helps.

I am thinking about putting clear strobes there as I installed new mirrors with turn signals recently and they are very visible from the front and side until you are behind the front wheel.

Those are Lockhart phillips turn 6 lights. I have those & wired them to be running lights and turn signals. The running lights add tons of conspicuity at night.

Thanks for the info Kenmore.
I see Fiamm diaphragm horns for bikes on Ebay all the time. they're a bit more compact than a airhorn setup, but much louder than stock.

No excuse for not seeing you from the front or the back
