Dude, it hadn't been much more than 10 minutes after I clicked "order" when I received a phone call from a nice young lady [well, she sounded young anyway, must be my overactive imagination[?], LOL] from Custom Dynamics asking me to confirm a choice I made in my order; they make a "Dynamic Cluster" tail light which has an amber outer ring and a two power red center cluster, which, as having this third circuit, requires a separate splice into the taillight wiring. I had decided against this in my head but my fingers didn't cooperate on the order form[!], and promptly informed her that no, it wasn't my intention to do so and to please correct my order to the simple red's, and boom, seconds later it was all done. She informed me that as a result of the change there was a $12 difference in the final payment, which was then reflected in an e-mail I quickly received by another staff member, to ultimately be credited back to me no problemo. kEwL...
So yeah, Custom Dynamics' are alright in my book too...the quality of their product seems to be great, their warranty is bangin', and their prompt and courteous customer service is great as well!
Now if any of you guy/gals are on the fence about swapping over to LED's now's the time to get the f off and do it!! Yer bike'll love you for it, you'll have a brighter and more noticeable presence on the road, and you'll be getting lots of comments on how nice your bike looks with those cool lights...

moonshines vs rings
I have been looking into these and am a little confused. Granted I haven't called Custom Dynamics. No doubt they can clarify... What exactly is the difference between moonshines and the rings? The moonshines are full white until you turn, then they turn completely amber during turns...? Rings are white around the outside edge until you turn then flash amber in the center only? Zat right?

FMCSA Standard No 108 #5 States " If optically combined with a turn signal lamp, is automatically deactivated as a DRL when the turn signal lamp or hazard warning lamp is activated, and automatically reactivated as a DRL when the turn signal lamp or hazard warning lamp is deactivated."
It's like the signals you see on the newer high end cars today, with those white LED strips built into the headlights...the white lights go off when the turn signal is applied, then go back on when the turn signals go off.
Sorry for the confusion!

Yep, I'm really really glad I got the clear lenses, as they make the lights almost disappear when not in use by blending in with the bike pretty well, and for letting all that crisp light come out totally unhindered!! And thanks man for the nice comments, I appreciate it! Ride safe!!

Just installed the same package, but with smoked lenses. Very nice improvement. I first made the mistake of ordering the amber rear turns, forgetting the dealer had installed a brake light modulator with the OEM red turns as running lights. Oops, the amber on all the time is a no-no. So Custom Dynamics exchanged the amber for red, no problem. They are a great company to deal with.
