Everyone has different tastes, that is what motorcycling is almost all about.
1) Putting on lights while on the road (driving) to illuminate the side profile of your bike with accent lighting does make your bike more visible at night. A definite + to being run over!
2) Never understood why LED’s are needed in a parking lot when the bike is parked. Either the owner is starved for attention or something else like that (my opinion only).

they would fit right in with a fur dash board and little gold feelers for the curb and some of those hydralics shocks and fake fur dice....disgusting looking to me, but hey thats America we all have the right to be tacky.

RE: LED accent lighting?
I'd consider it for safety/visibility reasons. But here in MI. they're illeagle while riding. Otherwise, not for me. I view them much as the custom car folks with the pouting kids dolls leaning against they're fenders.[:'(]

RE: LED accent lighting?
Over the top.............tacky.....................maybe, but isn't "over the top" what Harley is all about. What I paid for this thing is a little over the top! Not complaining...........just commenting!
I like the lights, tacky or not, it reflects well on my over the top chroming. (the wheels are next to be chromed) Now if someone can point me toward those fur dashboard covers.

Not a chance... You could not pay me to put them on my bike.
I cannot think of a more worthless accessory.
I actually laugh every time I see a bike with them on.
( standing by in my Superman Underoos to deflect the flaming that is about to start )
