I've put some lights from Joe Florida on my wife's Sportster. He's got alot of kits for reasonable prices, quick to ship and includes more than enough materials for mounting them.

here are some pics of my bike... you can see with the twisted spokes it just throws light going down the road...
i solder EVERYTHING! problem with LED's if one goes out they all go out... so i want ot make sure they are done right... hell it takes me about 6 hours to do a bike with a 15 kit and about 4 to do it with a 10 kit... but it shows... you look at any of the bikes in the crew i ride with or that i have done next to any other kit out there and it shows... we where at little sturgis 2 years ago and a guy that was doing installs tried to come over and see how i did the kits on bikes.. hahaha funny that the pro tried to come see how i did it... fools! makes me laugh at all those guys that get their scoots wired up at shows... crazy! looks like crap!


ohhh man, when I had considered LEDs in the past, I thought it might look too flashy, but your bob looks badass dude!

I ike Joe Floridas kits too, reasonably priced, good lighting, so far no issues with water....I have heard some that are pretty sensitive to pressure washers. But Joes is the only kit I've used too......

Wow, I can't wait to see them in person on the bob run.

You, might just convince me about LED kits. I've seen a bunch of badly done ones but I think hiding the pods so that you can only see the effect makes it go from cheesy to sick in a snap.
