Plug them in, turn ignition on without starting the engine, turn hazard flashers on for about 20 secs and it will correct any fast flashing . Any bike with canbus does not need a load stabilizer

This is correct. The "bulb" rear lamps on the dual stock lamps are pretty miserable, Follow a stock Street Glide for any distance and you will see for yourself. Add smoked lenses will just dim them a little more.

The Custom Dynamics inserts with smoked lenses work very well. If you get the front ones as well, they turn into DRL's which I happen to like a lot. That was my first upgrade - I rode mine home and the bike had only 20 miles on it when the Custom Dynamic LED's when in. A small price to pay for visibility....and you get your smoked lenses, too.

Visit Custom Dynamics web page it will light up front and rear better then HD LEDs.

Custom Dynamics are much better and brighter then any of the MOCO's LED products.

You pay more, but WOW. I placed their Fillerz on the rear end and WOW, I can see my brake lights in the rear view at night reflecting off signs hundreds of yards away!

Ditto on CD leds, very bright and you can get halo affect on both front and rear that really make the brakes and turn signals jump out.
Ended up with Hogworkz halo LED headlight to finish things off, total outlay of about 400.00.

Rear turn signals must be RED or Amber. Front must be Amber when acting as turn signals. You can not display Red to the front.
There are a lot of ways to do it.
LED inserts and smoked lens. HD offers them CD does and some others .
The CANBUS learns so when the LED's flash fast you turn on 4 ways for a bit it learns all is good.
If you want to go low cost. Pick up smoked lens then some bulbs like these in LED color you want.
Jam Strait RED LED Automotive Bulb Replacement - 1157 R is RED bright and just plug them in cost of two about $10 dollars
No equalizer needed.

Custom dynamics all the way around here as well. Headlight as well. Definitely worth it to see and be seen.

CD here front and rear, clear lens. About $200 but worth every dime, if nothing else from a safety standpoint. A $25k bike should come standard with these, but HD cheaped out and put last century tech 1157s in there.

I have Custom Dynamics on my 17 SG with smoked lenses front and back and couldn't be happier.


I have noticed that the turn signal on the dash blinks really fast but the turn signals themselves are blinking at normal speed
