Same complaint with the HD unit, not much difference between running brightness and braking brightness.

Not long ago, a member posted a way to rewire the HD module so that it was just a directional/brake light. Completely eliminated the running light feature. IMO this is a much better way to go. I like having my directionals go from off to bright/stop rather than running to not much brighter/stop. I personally have HD's older version which is just directional/brake.

 

went with the kury very happy thanks for the input all of 15 minutes damm why did i wait.

 

I use the Kuryakan because you can select to have the brake flash three times before staying on full time. I don't believe you can do that with the HD module.

 

I say Kury. I have had two HD units crap out on me. Then the dealer gave me a free Kury kit with the back off plugin. I have not had a problem since. Both HD units crapped out within a week or so of having them.

 

Kury. The pulse-brake option really increases visibility when stopping. The Kury kit willend up being a few bucks more once youadd a pair ofred lenses. The HD kit is like $55 and the Kury is like $60 + $10 for lenses.

edit: Oh, and no you won't need the load equalizer...unless you run low-draw LED bulbs...I've never seen an install actually effect the alarm security indicator light as they suggest could happen. Also (in case nobody points it out) the red lenses (or clear with red bulbs) are needed becausemost states require brake lights to be red....turn can be either amber or red, but once you make them brake they must be red.

 

Neither. I use the Tailbones from Biketronics. Completely satisfied. Great company to deal with.

 

Had the HD on my old bike and took it off. Couldn't tell much difference between the running lights and the brake lights. I wanted it obvious when I hit the brakes riding in traffic everyday.

Now have the Biketronics Tailstopper and am very happy with it.Only the main tail light is on for running but the turn signals come on as brake lights. It is very obvious that you have hit the brake when two extra lights come on. They have several variations of run/turn/stop modules so you can pick one that suits your needs best.
