Thanks to everyone else for the comments and input, however I am quite happy with the brake light as is. I'm knot interested in adding the turn signals or the tri bar light to the brake light system. I kind of feel that I would be looking like some sort of emergency vehicle with that many lights.

I am however considering (in the future) going the later style with out the center light. Makes the fender look a lot better. But for now I am content.

You will be able to do that!! I have mine on the second brightness setting because the sun shines here a lot and I want the cagers to see me. My riding bud always complains about how bright the BAL is but he wants me up front because I have the LED headlights on my RGU. He's such a nag!!!!!

Thank again for your service to this nation. Wishing you a safe last couple months and a safe return home.

One suggestion: Get the HD kit that converts your rear turn signals to running/ brake lights. Then you've got 3 running lights and 3 brake lights instead of just 1 each. The kit's about $60. Got mine from Surdyke.com

The more lights the better!!
BAL runs OK with the Run/Turn/Brake kit?
