+1 on Bright *** lights! I have the BAL-1 and it's fantastic. I have riders and cagers alike pulling up and asking about it. Cages back way off me now too. Best think I've added to the bike.

Anyone running the White LED's front fender from Ride Time?
I wonder how it looks - Clear cap or smoked?

I asked that several months ago but didn't get a response. Thought about it but opted for the amber because at least I knew how it looked.

A friend of mine went to Gall's Police Supplies and purchased 3 LED lights and installed them under he tour pack. They are about 4" long and 2" high. He installed them to come on when he applies his brakes. I was riding behind him last week, when he hit the brakes, I was almost blinded because they were so bright. They are the same lights they install on the inside of police cars. Brightest LED lights I have ever seen. Not sure about the price, somewhere close to $150.00 per unit. Worth the money if it prevents someone from hitting you in the back. They are programable to blink, flash and/or just stay on. You can also pick a color, my buddy has two red and one amber.

I have the BAL-1 from Brightass Lights and it's terrific.
Gets the attention of folks behind you. Great peace of mind.
I can swap it out between my 08 Ultra and 09 XL1200C Sporty within minutes. True plug n play.
Highly recommended. Pricey, but worth it.

+1 on the ridetimetechnology tail light, have them on my SG and wife's sporty. He has a tappered one without the license plate lens which you do not need for the SG. Wasn't on his website but called him and he said he had it.
