The Best Neon's In The Business.
Who makes the best neon's money can buy for your bike? I have had very, very bad past experiences with sh quality neon's from some of the Daytona bike shows neon dealers(Dr. Neon, for one). The transformers would go bad every couple of months. The tubes would also need to be replaced way too often as well. I'm thinking the new LED types are of better quality and last much longer. I'm just not sure who's the best out there. Any real experiences? I appreciate any feedback.

Neon is probably not the way to go for a bike you intend to ride. \\; I've been putting LEDs on our bikes and love the results. \\; Harley sells LED pods but they seem way overpriced and don't yield much light. \\; I wish I could remember where I bought mine but they were cheap and I got them on ebay. \\; The long and short of it is to buy high powered lights with a wide lighting pattern. \\; Use heavily insulated wire! \\; Bikes get hot and thin insulation will get perferated and cause shorts.

RE: The Best Neon'
Go LED and don't look back. \\; You can double the # of lights if you feel the need for more glow, but basically they are bulletproof. \\; Got em on my ride in Sturgis, and they're going great after 4 years. \\; Good Luck
