Default Flashing turn signals when brakes applied

Coming in to work yesterday, I was catching up to another HD, when I noticed that his turn signals (amber lens) flashed rapidly when he applied the brakes. VERY attention-getting, especially in the 0-dark-thirty hours. He continued down the road when I had to turn off. Anyone know who makes this mod?

Thanks, be safe.

Auxilary brake light/running light/turn signal conversion kit. He probably did not change the amber lenses to red that comes with the kit. Nice little safety upgrade. As you seen gets your attention. You can get the kit from H-D.

I looked at that kit on the HD site. Doesn't mention that they flash when braking applied. The ones I saw flashed so fast to almost be strobes, and his brake light itself did not flash, so I am sure it was not the rider getting on and off his brakes that fast.

Cajun take a look at the Kuryakyn Panacea LED conversion set up. It is a brake and turn signal replacement to will flash 6 to 7 times before staying solid when braking. I have this system on my bike and is a great safety upgrade. The system brake light and turn signals are sold separately. I believe the Kuryakyn numbers for your bike are Tailight 4889 Turn signals 4967 Hope this is what you are refering to.
