Basically that's the idea. LEDs don't provide enough resistance.

- integrated turn signals + flashing brake light

Or

- no turn signals + solid brake light

Also disappointing. I will be getting a replacement equalizer at some point, maybe it will provide integrated signals+solid brake light. Here's to hoping

The most recent panacea I installed was on a newer dyna and it had the option for integrated signals with a normal brake light like you want. Not sure why yours doesn't.

I agree it's weird. I even confirmed it directly with the manufacturer. If its important to you this feature i would definitely call them before ordring.
