Auxiliary Running Light / Brake Light / Turn Signal Conversion Kit
#11
Made my own also, just used LED's instead of dual filament bulbs, to maintain the DOT spec for the amber turns. Just brakes light up turn signals red, unless the turn signals are actually on, then they alternately flash between red and amber. Real attention grabber for those behind you.

i've had the modules on the past three harleys i've owned, with no problem. there is an alternative though that will work. if you go to a used parts place for harley parts, you can get a pair of front turn signals. they use a two element bulb unlike the rear factory ones. install the front ones in the rear,and use the low powered element on the taillight lead, and the high element for the turn signal from the original stalk. hope this helps you. it's what i did before harley came out with the module kits. oh yeah, use red lenses if you're using the front turn signal housings on the rear, they will fit too.

I am from Ireland and have rode in every country in Europe plus Russia, the North cape ( Artic circle), Turkey, Africa and even spent 31 days in the great USA where I rode from New York to San Francisco and down the Big Sur think it was the 101 (oh that Carmel by the sea was lovely) and back Route 66 to Chicago and I never had a problem.
Its all about you been in control and reading the situation ahead of you and then slowing down the traffic behind you BEFORE you have to Lock up the bike brakes..
I am not being nasty as I am honestly just giving my opinion on my personal riding experiences.
Oh by the way this a great forum and thanks for the help folks.

Hey, the wife and I were tooling through your neck of the woods back in '93 and we spent a nice night in a B&B just west of Athlone and the next morning we had our laundry done in Athlone and kicked around the town, anyways, the place we spent the night they had a son who brought us our tea in the evening and the next morning before we left I took him for a little ride on the bike, kid was grinning from ear to ear, good kid, good folks.
The kids name was Adrian, you know him? Tell him I say Hi!
What about Ryan, there was one guy named Ryan we met, you know anyone named Ryan there?
Now Northern Ireland was a real gas, don't me started but that place was still hopping then!
Cheers

We have more a$$holes on the road in USA than anywhere in the world. Yeah, probably even more than Ireland.
