run, brake turn signal kit

oldbiker · 03-26-2008, 06:03 PM

I recieved my kit from Electrical Connection today. The parts are good quality, but if you're not mechanically inclined you might want to look for a plug and ride version.

Good luck with the soldering iron oldbiker, LOL

I did solder mine vs. using the blade/tap connectors that came with the kit....and used shrink tube to make weather resistant.

oldbiker. the most difficult thing, I think, about that kit is pull those wires through the fixtures.

Besides painting the lenses, what do you do for the red lense covers?

Nothing. The led lights are in a ring. Half glow red at reduced power for running lights and at full power for brake lights. The other half glow amber for turn signals.

works great. big improvement for safety.

flightdoc · 03-27-2008, 01:48 PM

only use a drop of glue on the leds. I used too much.

Thanks for explaining that AG. I think that's my next "expense."

Saw these in J&P's newest metric cruiser catalog. They have a new part number for 03-08 Vulcan 1600.

YOU CAN GET CLEAR LENSES AT CRUISER CUSTOMIZING FOR ABOUT $15.00 A PAIR. CAN OF TRANSPARTEN HOBBY PAIN AT WALLY WORLD FOR 3.00 OR LESS. PAIN THE INSIDE ONLY. THATS WHAT I DID, AND THEY ARE SWEET. REAL NICE LOOK AND ADD ON TOO.

GOOD LUCK FINDING A PLUG-NPLAY FOR THIS TINKER TOY. NOT YET PRODUCED FOR THE NOMADS.. MAYBE SOMEDAY BUT TILL THEN YOU NEED TO FIGURE ON SOLDER AND SHRINK TUBING.
