I just ordered a SuPie kit with remote and bluetooth at Amazon for the King. Don't think the cops or the state cares one way or the other here as long as your not impersonating a leo or first responder. Then you have real problems.

Using 3m sticky tape for years in all sorts of applications. Make sure the area is clean and free of wax, selents, oil and other debris. Then use a 3m adhesion promoter. Don't use the little soaked towlet applicators. Get a small bottle of the stuff and use a q-tip to apply it with.

I understand that most states don't allow these to be used when the bike is being ridden, so.... wondering if I should do it at all. Thoughts? Sample picture below.........



Ha ha ha get the rainbow lights Tommy , awesome .

I put the Harley kit on my Lady's 17 RGS. As was said before there are certain combos you can't run. My state is no blue.

Although I will say the other day (when we had a warm spell) there was a crotch rocket with flashing blue splitting lanes. I'm not in CA either....LOL

I liked the idea of adding more things later with the Harley kit. Speaker lights, floor boards, etc.

Its what my dealer sells. Its really pretty cool because of the features it has on the cell phone. my wife had a jacket on and he used a feature on the app to take a photo of the color and the led's copied that color exactly. It will also strobe and pulse to music on the app, like your playlist. it will even do two zones, so different colors and when you use your brake, all led's will use a red brake color. I wouldnt say better, just different from the other brand. I do know this, my wife is going to enjoy picking out different colors for the two zones and when shes happy, generally im happy.
