Default LED conversion done

I finally finished the last piece of the LED puzzle. I was holding back on the headlight because of lack of daytime visibility from an angle, but with these signals that double up as led running lights and they are very visible even from angles I was comfortable switching to led headlight.
So on the front I have phase 7 headlight and driving lights & custom dynamics 'dynamic rings' signals, and the led board from custom dynamics on the fender.
In the back I have a custom dynamics led tail light, as well as the fender light which also functions now as a brake light. The rear signals I had converted to function as brake lights/signals with red led's but after riding behind someone with the same setup I realized that with so much red led's going in the back i didn't notice the signals right away so I switched back to non braking signals and swapped them for yellow led's. the only thing I'm still hesitant is to pop out the corner lenses on the tour pack and swap them, I'm worried about leaks e.t.c. Once I break the original seal. Also I have a pair of hyper lights led's mounted on the bottom of the tour pack that flash when I hit the brakes.
Here are some pictures.

I run the Phase 7 led lights too love em super bright at night. But went with the Kuryakyn Panacea tail lights and front turn signals. The Rear 3 work as brake lights till you hit a signal then what ever side you signal swaps from red to amber as long as the signal is on. I like them for that very reason you said. have not done the tour pack leds yet but did put the CD fender lights on super bright as well. I also have a several red effect lights on the motor, trans, bags, wheels, underneath.... hell everywhere

I had the phase 6 on my 2002, but went with Harley in my 2009, both are good lights, I just didn't like the half lights in the phase 7 truck lite.
Personnel preference.
I suggest LED headlamp for all Harley's, remember 49% of all motorcycle fatalities are women over the age of 49 not seeing the motorcycle.

Biker09; very nice...were the TL passing lamps "plug & play" or did you have to alter wiring?

To the OP, how many bones do you have into your light set up? I agree with everyone's comments in reference to being seen - I might just have to do a whole lot of chores around the house in addition to showing non-gender specific safety statistics before I convince the queen I need what I need!
