What is the difference between these and the LED light strips people put underneath their gas tanks to light up the engine? It's all bling...

Yep, exactly. What's gay to one man is bling to another. I rank LED lighting right up there with the dumb asses with the radio's blaring going down the highway and pipes so loud you cant hear yourself think. Hey man, I need a bigger amp because my pipes are too loud.

You SO hit that one right on the head. Bravo.

I don't like it either but I don't like all the "Ring of Fire" garbage people put on their Harleys and Wings either. They will sell them.
