Thanks everybody!! It's getting there....slowly but surely.
I was able to find a wiring diagram, so I went ahead and installed the lights and ran the wires today. The license plate light is hooked up, just need to connect/solder the 7 wires for the run/brake light and turn signals. I plan on removing the black plastic wire protector/holder and pulling the wires up to the connector, then I'll stagger the wire connections, and pull them back inside the steel tube I put on the inside of the fender.

That looks really great and the wiring install is very well thought out....I wish either OEM and aftermarket suppliers would put this effort on their solutions. That would leave us customers with a lot less hassle....
So, I got a totally unexpected, but nice surprise yesterday after installing the rear fender and plugging in the lights.... I had talked to Thunderbike earlier this week to verify the function of the turn signals. They confirmed, as I had been told by another forums member, that they were TURN only. So I wired them up accordingly, expecting to have the single function turn signals......Well, it turns out that hooked up with the Badlands Module/Load Equalizer they actually work as 3 function Run/Brake/Turn lights!!!! At first I was sure that I had screwed something up with the wiring, and that the turn signals were both stuck (on),..... until I realized it was just the running lights, .....Today I installed the chin spoiler, I still need to pull the wheel and install the front fender, probably get to it Mon (pics to follow)....... Tomorrow I'm gonna go ride this thing!!!
Here's a pic of the "full function" Thunderbike turn signals, and tail light!!

They look great! Do they look bright during day as well as night times? I would love to get rid of the turn signals sticking out sideways on my Rocker. They look like preying mantis eyeballs to me.
Hey nice bike man, i am thinking on those 422 shocks as well as progressive front springs, question is im a big dude 6'2 280, did you notice a softer smoother ride? Also i didnt see that adjustable ****, i guess its easy enough to adjust them if needed? Its the pre-load correct?

Ya Sarah, the new LEDs are very bright. I checked them out in the direct sun today and they're very noticeable....

Thanks Man!!!....I noticed a pretty big improvement over the stock shocks, quite a bit smoother!! Not sure what **** you mean, but yes the pre-load is easy to adjust, I'm 5'11/160 and have the pre-load set on the lightest setting......

I guess what Tommy is referring to is the RAP system Progressive Suspension offers with specific 422s. That one does have the adjustment **** bolted to the swing arm right behind the left passenger peg.

I couldn't help but think of this post when I went in the garage this morning....Your right Sarah, the turn signals do look very similar to preying mantis eyeballs.......
I guess this little guy likes that look on the Rocker.
