Red face Rear Flasher/Brakelights
Hi all! I was wondering what is needed to set up rear flashers as indicators and also as brake lights? Here in Canada we are not as lucky as you US peeps that automatically have it from stock. Any kits available or what do I need to round up to make it happen?
Thanks

Do you mean to have the directionals used as a brake light too? This is what I have.. http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/g...bmLocale=en_US

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm looking for. I guess then I would just have to change the lens to red and I'm set?

Bike is a 2010 Nightster. I'll call my local stealer and check out the kit and see if that's what I need. Thanks guys!

May still work on an international bike like yours. Hard to say. If you have a service manual I'd look it up and see if the wiring is similar.
