Brake/tail light convo
      #561126 - 05/18/12 06:04 PM

I saw the thing-a-maggoty that Chy posted in the vault that will adapt turn signals to brake, running lights. I think I've seen other ones just cant remember where and believe me I've been looking.

I use these on mine and Karens bikes: Kuryakyn Run Turn Brake Controller
Is that what you were thinking about?

I rode briefly behind Chy the night before last. Meant to ask him about that. Works well.

Also what about red lenses for our OEM signals?

OK, heres what I'm looking for. I like the setup chuckyj had on his bike, using the turns as brakes, however if with the one that Chy is running if you can eliminate the tail light and if it is two different color bulbs Id prefer it with clear lenses.

From Kuryakyn yes...
I dont recall what Chy posted but there are some other options out there.

I had this one in the beginning when I was running the OEM lights: The Electrical Connection - this is basically a ring of LEDs that goes in behind your incandescent bulbs. Its a great kit, I never had an issue with it.

I added the Kuryakyn module mentioned above when I went to different light styles. Just so happens both styles were Kuryakyn and the kit works great.

I found these guys recently. Great phone service but didn't quite do what I wanted. Might be worth a shot though... Badlands

There are more...
Kisan might suite your needs as well as Custom Dynamics or was it Signal Dynamics (both are lighting companies).

Im sure between all of those you'll find what will work best for your needs.

I was going to go with that set up but after 2 months of them waiting for them to get parts I gave up on them. What exactly do you want to do? If you go with a different turn signal you can get red bulbs and clear lenses. I will probably do that someday when money isn't as tight.

+1 on the Kuryakyn unit Z posted, it works great and is ridiculously easy to install. I added it to a led taillight with silver bullets. turned out great (I think so anyway )
