Ask someone else and their response and reasoning may be different.

I'm the same way. I retired from the Police Department (civilian position, not a cop) and dealt with the various computer systems, intel gathering, and research on the internet. If someone has the time and energy they can find out a lot about a person...even if they have just a tiny bit of information with which to start. Takes some work, but it can be done. That's why I don't put anything about myself on the internet that could be used to "find" me. I do regular searches for me on all the major search engines to see what's out there. I have almost no internet footprint at all.

Yeah, maybe I go a bit overboard with it, but just cuz I'm paranoid doesn't mean people aren't watching me.

Now...where did I put my tinfoil hat?

Ooh! Ooh! I have a 2015 Ultra with the saddle bag lights. I try not to ride during dusk or night time cuz of the stupid antlered forest rats (deer) in these parts, but the other night I had to ride home. My wife followed me home in her car and she said I was very visible, even from a quarter mile away. Those lights are worth every penny.

These lights will not work on the older style saddlebags? I have 2011 SG.

I went with CD's turnsigs, tribar light, and moco's saddlebag lights on my RGS. Works like a charm. I'll be adding CD's Plugz in the future

I love the look of these lights and want to get them but I want to ditch the factory rear signals on my SGS. Is there a different bracket I could buy that would still have a plate mount with a little white light and no signals, so the bag lights would be the only rear facing lights?

Very nice! I'm all about bright lights so I can be seen. I'd like to do those between the bags and fender lights but I'm going to hold off as I will probably get the CVO style fender once I get my extended bags.
