On mine, the white light disappears when signal light is on, not both at the same time. If thats what you mean.

Does it seem like your front turns are "too busy" with all that going on?

I like my CDs. It wouldn't hurt to add them. If nothing else, they look killer.

Smartass!

I have the feeling that when an oncoming vehicle sees the front of your bike with all the lighting going on that they may miss a turn signal buried under all that bright light. Thoughts?

Hard to say. They are pretty bright, the amber ones. The rings on mine are white just on the outside, while the amber is the middle with most of the LED. I think on coming vehicles do notice it. I was afraid the amber would blend in with the color of the bike and the won't see it.

The amber turns are pretty bright. Hard to miss them. I think.
