i have one....works excellent....brake and running light and tailight all built in. i have the brake light on the top instead of the bottom

 

As mentioned above, Figure Machine has a really nice side mount. Here is their lit version. The mounting bracket is machined so that the wire for the LEDs is concealed. Outstanding! They have a unit without lights, too, as well as a slew of other cool parts.

 

How/where do you wire this?? Does it have the wiring with it?? Any additional pics?

 

I used the stock location and did this>



Gonna pick up some black allen heads or black acorn nuts. Vertical plates are legal in Florida.

 

It was not hard to wire. It comes with an LED light with attached wiring. I had to drill a small hole in the groove of the backplate for the wire to exit. It runs down a channel in the bracket. I then ran it along the back side of the swingarm and up into the battery box area. I used zip ties to secure the wiring and you can barely see it.

 

Hey California riders...!!!...the law is 12" to the bottom of the plate from the ground or higher,no lower,and must be horizontal.and lighted.I want to do this also so I have a CHP friend and he checked it out for me...I had to edit a little.

 

I simply shortened the stock plate mount and turned the plate so that it would mount vertically.

It wasn't even a five minute mod.
