I don't have one but I have ridden behind a number of those who do and in bright sunlight they don't show up very well for either brake or turn, worse than a stock light IMO. I could easily see getting rear ended with one of those, if you want LED get a BAL.

I have them. According to people riding behind me they are bright and annoying. Exactly what you want. Pricey but they do what they are supposed to do. Make you more visible. Definitely brighter than stock incandescent ones IMO.

Had them on the back of my Ultra. Plenty bright, adds 2 red brake lights when stopping and flashes yellow on turn. If you're interested I kept the turn signals when I traded the bike in. Need to sell them.

Are there any other brands that compare or better? Or does kuryakyn dominate with this product ? Was also looking at just slipping in their super white bright headlight bulb to give me something better up front. Any opinions on those as well?

I have the Kuryakyn Panacea lights on mine. Everybody that I ride with says they are very bright in the daylight and grab your attention at night with how bright they are. With my Phase 7 head and driving lights, and my HD Tour Pak LED light, I have been told that it's almost impossible not to see me. I would highly recommend them.

I have also heard great things about Custom Dynamics.

I have had them on my Ultra for 3 years. All who I ride with tell me they are very bright during daytime. I do have a buddy who has the regular Kury LED their signals on his soft tail and they are very dim.

I have them on my 05 RK. They are awesome, very bright and I like the way they flash once brake is applied. I really think they have saved me sometimes. Get them....

Got them on my ultra. Can't imagine anyone calling them dim. Very bright IMO plus u can set them to pulse the brake lights when you apply the brakes for added safety.
