I planned on installing the Panacea tail lamp system. I've used it before and I like it. As I was trying to decide what to do about the turn signals, I thought I would remove them altogether, and simply use the signal in the Panacea. I tried that, and quickly decided it was a bad idea. Not nearly enough light for a reliable turn signal. Some people are willing to scarifice function for form. I'm just the opposite.

Moved mine to the front of the rear fender...just behind the shocks.

I could've tucked them in closer, but I wanted to be visible from behind.

I want the bike to look cool, but I ride a lot and want to make sure I'm seen.
