I have the smoked BAL and it is worth the money! I have mine set to strobe 6 times and hold. Asked all the cops around here about my non DOT setting. They say there is a rule on how many times a brake light can blink, but would never pull me over.

and the cars stay back from me at lights as well. Often a full car distance.

I have a 2010 SG with the same tail light setup. I got the led turns and tails from Custom Dynamics and could not be happier. Much brighter, less heat, and less current draw.

Once again back to original question. I have a 2010 Street Glide and had my dealer here in Springfield Il do a custom mod to the fender and install a BAL. I love it and will have it done again if I ever get another SG. Mine is about to get a new home as I’m selling her and I believe to a very good friend. I shot a couple of vids the other night and here are the links to see her.

Thanks for posting a response to the OP's question cltgt. I'm getting tired of trying to ignore all the BAL praise with no real input when a BAL won't fit without customization (as Sidecar Bob and several others of us have said).

Which setup did you pick? I've been looking at an "operational" sample board they have set up in the J&P Superstore (up at Destination Daytona) but can't tell if there's much difference between the stock bulbs and the LEDs (red only versus yellow/red) by just looking at samples inside their store.

BTW - They also have a Kuri LED sample board set up but the Kuri version comes with their cheap chrome stalks and housings - rust in a heartbeat here in FL.

I put the HD Bright *** light on my FLHTK and the alarm lights up sometimes-disabling my left turn signal. I have to turn the bike off and restart. most time this cures it. Got so fed up I took them off and went to stock. Any sugestions?

Love the BAL. Had one on me '07 Heritage and now on my '10 Ultra classic. Set on bright running and constant flash brake. Keeps the fools back. I do let off the brake when someone is between me and traffic at a stop light, just to be nice. But if they creep, they get blasted with the strobe. :-)
