Default Flashing Brake lights

has anyone or dose anyone know where to find these? Or do you have one?

they flash the brake light two or three times before going steady when you hit th ebrakes So that the fools behind you hopefully get woke up some and dont try to run you over.
I had one try doing it the other day on me. then i saw this on a bike as it pasted by.
See them on Ebay but for the metric bikes not harley.
Talking with the guy he needs photos of the conectors next to a ruler. in the harness and at the lights etc.. and name of them etc... to make some for ours.

I have been tapping my brakes, manually, for years, just before normal braking. I always do it, doesn't matter if I know someone is behind me or not.
When I am stopped, with my brake light engaged and there is a cage coming up behind me, I always tap the brakes a few times. If they don't look like they are slowing down fast enough, I tap the brakes a few more times. No idea if that has kept anyone from rear ending me, but it does make more visible.
Had a friend in Ft. Lauderdale suffer permanent brain damage when he got hit from behind, while he was stopped at a red light.

I have the Kuryakyn Panacea taillight and rear turn signals that do that. Anything that makes us more visible to clueless cagers is a good thing!

Cheers!

I have the Kury module on the brake lights/ turn signals and a "BackOff XP" on the fairing spoiler LED lights. Makes a great light show when I stop.
