Default I have a brake light question!!
We just put a Kury LED brake light in my Lo. We can't remember if the rear turns signals are supposed to stay on or not! And we haven't even been drinking. Lol

Just adding a little more pink, too.

no, rear signals are signal only, front signals are signal/running lights.

Just like Sgt Jim said, rear ones are for signals only.

If you want the rear turn signals to function as running lights you will need the Auxiliary Brake Light/Running Light Turn Signal Conversion Kit.

For the Fatboy Lo, the part number is 69462-06C.

Thanks guys. We thought that they didn't stay on. I will check into that conversion kit. It would sure help with visibility. Those LED's are bright.

I put LEDs on mine about a month ago...stop/run/turn...and I really like them. And they are bright! 48 lights per light! I'd like to put a rear stop on it too but that's way down the road.

Lol!! Gotta be able to find it in the parking lot with everyone else's black Fatboys. I did have an old guy this weekend that said, "Well, that is one way to ruin a perfectly good Harley."
