That's strange because the load equalizer is just a resistor...wonder why they didn't work for you.

I actually ran like for about 6 months. Just gotta use hand and arm signals. Pretend your a road capt everywhere you go.

Poser has the most awesome idea. Not turn signals; way cooler.
I'd love to do this but have no CNC capabilities.

It must be well done. I don't see the item on his bike! Where is it?

Apparently they aren't all just resistors.
Many of them claim "no load". Some others claim to have diodes (which makes sense for the no load claims)

On my bike, the LED turn signals flash normal, but the indicator in the dash flashes rapidly. It's got something to do with the new BCM (I don't know what the B stands for.). According to the chief electrician ad HD, the smaller resistance of the 3 ohm resistor will add enough load to stabilize the indicator without drawing too much from the signal power. Apparently the turn signals and dash indicators are on separate circuits that oly talk to each other inside the BCM.

Yep. I was looking right at it and didn't see it. The perfect lighting accessory IMHO. Be seen only when it's supposed to be seen. This is a great idea.

Why don't you make up a couple more sets of those turn signals? I would be interested in a set.

i was looking at that when i was shopping for turn signals.

IMO it ruins the symmetry of the front end. you end up with a bottom tree that's twice as thick as the top tree.

if you wanna do something along those lines, get two of these mini bullet lights and drill and tap the lower tree inside the forks and bolt them up.

cheaper and cleaner with the same effect
