I'm running this on both of my bikes.

works great and is very bright. the only downside that I can see and its not really that bad is, that I can't find a led bulb that will work for my older fatty. I've had led bulbs in it that worked only on r/b and the standard bulb was just as bright.

FWIW, I'm running all LEDs on my 97 with the Kuryakyn Rear Run-Turn-Brake Controller. If you're using the Kuryakyn, I can recommend bulbs to you. Just PM me if you need the info.
