LED's are from amazon. Purchased them cheap just to play around with after seeing a video on them and thought they looks pretty good at night
Dang. I already thought your bike looked amazing during the day, but now I'm digging the night pics with the LEDs. I was toying with the idea of putting them on my Slim. Did you mount a separate switch for them somewhere or are they spliced into the current lights? IMO, anything to help being seen riding at night helps, especially with the crazy drivers that I have to encounter on the freeways out here in SoCal.

Hey gthmny, thank you very much for the kind words I really appreciate that and Congratulations on your new Slim!! There are a couple of ways you can install them. I just set them up so they come on when I want them to via remote. They came with a keychain remote that just toggles through the basics and it also came with a master remote that controls much more. They pretty much can do any color, they also can Flash, Jumping from different colors, fading and Sounds control so it will dance to any music that is being played around it. I pretty much just leave them on one color when I use them (witch is very rarely)
the second way you can set them up would be when ever you hit your brakes they would come on. release the brakes they would turn off (definitely pretty cool)
this is a link to the ones I purchased. Very reasonable in price. I didn't use all the lights that it came with either.

Anyone try the Viking loki saddlebags on their slim? It says you dont need to relocate rear turn signals, but I have to relocate mine. Maybe its the holdfast docking hardware but I dont think it is.

had to drill new holes in mine, and barely got them to fit. The original holes where not even spaced correctly.
Here's a Sundowner that I tried out for a ride . Comfy seat but I decided to go a solo route .
I still have it , new condition and for sale if anyone is interested.

yup I had to drill out a couple of new holes also. I was hoping for an easy install but that was not the case. Relocated turn signals then had to drill holes.
