Re: Turn signal/brake light
Okay...this may be a stupid question but I am going to ask anyway. Is there a kit I can buy that turns my back orange signal lights into red brake lights. I have a RKC and I see some like mine and some where the orange cover is switched to red and also comes on when the brakes are applied. Seems to me this is a safety issue as I get nervous about some a$$hole behind me not seeing my single red brake light when I'm sitting at a stop. I will usually pump my brake a couple of times hoping he will notice me.
Thanx!
Thanx!

RE: Re: Turn signal/brake light
I can not stress the importance enough of NOT removing your ambers. When you need to be seen in rain,fog, or just pulled over. Turn on your emergency flashers. It was my first train of thought "get more red back there" WRONG! Ever watch bikes that have changed the ambers for reds...can't see em worth a darn. If you don't like the looks of the ambers you can put on smoke lens's and they still have the amber visability. The group I ride with know from some real life experiences in bad weather. We would never remove the ambers.

RE: Re: Turn signal/brake light
I totally agree with BEAST, also the ambers are way more visible as a signal light for lane changes or turns, the reds are real easily missed by someone behind, especially on a bright sunny day. On my 02 Dyna I put on a Backoff license plate frame that had a row of red LEDs that gave me an extra running and brake light, I also put on a Backup flasher module that would blink the turn signals 4 times and the brake lights when you hit the brake (signal lights would not flash if you had a turn signal on). \\;

RE: Re: Turn signal/brake light
I bought these:
 \\;
Kuryakyn Panacea LED tail lights and turn signals...turn signals work as red brake lights when braking and are amber when being used as turn signals. \\; Contrary to what some on this forum may say...they are bright.
 \\;
Bought mine from Eastern Performance...cheaper than the catalog and free shipping.
