It looks really nice. Nothing big but those small things just clean the bike up and make it look sharp. Can you share how to take these electrical connectors apart so I no longer need to splice wires? I am on my second Kuryakyn light which I like but for that price it would be nice to make the bike look cleaner and taking those original turning signals off.

The Kury lights seem to have problems and for the cost of them I did not consider using them. This light was inexpensive and seems nice....Time will tell though...Good luck and if you need any help let me know....and yes you are right that sometimes the simple little mods make such an improvement on how the bike looks...

Thanks dtone72rss....Money is a little tight this year so major mods have been put on hold, but I did want to make a few changes and get the best bang for my buck....I think I accomplished that in a small way. Hopefully I will be able to get to do some of the other mods in the near future.

So, how is that tail light holding up? I'm still thinking of adding it to mine.
Sure thing RC...I actually learned to do this from another forum member, Mud...Here is a link to his right up with step by step instructions and pictures....It was really easy to do....

So far so good...No complaints about it not being bright enough by other people riding behind me...Directionals are also working just fine...So far I am really happy with the light and for the price and the fact that you do not have to modify the stock harness and can put back the stock tail lamp I think it is well worth the $50 they charge for it. I did do a google search on them and the negative comments that I saw all pertained to customer service or lack there of, but since D2Moto is a Site Sponsor I think that if I really had an issue it would not be that hard to get a hold of them. The only other complaint that I had which I did speak of in my post was no freaking instructions, no wiring codes, nothing just a packaged taillight. It really wasn't hard to figure it out but I definitely see some people having issues with it and they will need to get tech support. If you do go for the light I did a complete write up on how to install the light in my original post....Good luck and let me know if you need anything else.....

Just wanted to add that I got my D2moto light on yesterday and it was a breeze, no cussing or anything!!! I learned the plug trick also from Mud(thanks brother), light really cleans up the fender, and for the price you can't beat it!!!

Looks good....How do you like the light so far? Did you need to use a load equalizer or did it just work without any problems? I was thinking about putting my stock lites back on and mount them to the swing arm for a little more visibility...

What did you have to do to get this to work?
Hi;
Was wondering what all you had to do to get this setup working? Load equalizers, splicing wires,etc. That is exactly what I want to do.
Thanks
