I'm cleaning up my wiring for my springer swap on my 08 Nightster. I was going to eliminate alot of switches & lights but I've decided to keep everything on the bike...a little more challenging.

Here is where I had relocated my indicator lights to a while back.



I'm internally wiring the handlebar wiring so the only wires left out would have been those lights. Plus, I made new risers and that light bezel won't fit the same.

I drilled 5 holes in 11 gauge plate then cut it out with a hole saw and cut a 1" piece of 1.25" od tube



I'm replacing the light bar with colored l.e.d.'s.

Recessed the circle 1/8" and welded it in to that tube then beveled the lip. The hole on the side is where the wires run



Made a little mount out of angle, welded that on & powdercoated it satin black









The back is open but I'll be covering it with this

It fastens through the speedo bucket clamp strap bolt



It ended up looking like a shift light in a drag car but this is actually where I got the idea

little l.e.d. flashlight



Thanks

 

Looks good man. Are the indicator lights different colors?

 

Yeah. Red=oil (middle), 2 green for turn (left & right), blue=high beam (bottom) and another green for neutral at the top. I tested them all at once and they're ridiculously bright...just like that flash light but when lit individually, like they normally would be they're much more pleasant.

 

Very cool and creative !!

 

Ha! very nifty there mr. reed.

 

Looks awesome!

 

wow thats a cool idea. deffinately looks hotrod like.

 

Been thinking about what to do with mine as well. That's a great solution. Creative and well executed, as always.

 

Killer setup! How did you wire that up? Anything speical? I thought there a common ground and ignition for all the LEDs... I'm not sure. Your input would be appreciated. Thanks!

 

That is awesome!
