    I just don't see the point unless they are on a show bike.

    Re: led light kids

    most of them are illegal to have on if the bike is in motion.

    IE, not parked for a show or something. Especially if you decide to get ones that are either red or blue flashing.

    Yeah dont put blue lights that flash on your bike, it gets old being asked by a cop if you are a cop

    especially not on the side of the roadway and then mouthing off to a cop when he gives you a ticket for illegal lighting (Not me, read it on a forum somewhere).

    Green or yellow lights are your safest bet.

    Re: led light kids

    OP: NESR probably won't be the best place to ask this question since most of the guys on here don't ride with neons, led's, or anything along those lines

    it's a form over function sort of deal, and since people here feel established as riders and not posers, people will insult you for asking

    just take the responses with a grain of salt

    btw, did you mean "kits" and not "kids"?

    Re: led light kids

    Not that I know anything about the LED thing but if you do get them make sure you install then clean. We had one bike come into the shop for some work and it was a mess. Who ever installed the lighting kit had wires running everywhere and it just made it more difficult to work on the bike. In the end the new owner just had us pull them off and he tossed them in the trash.

    Re: led light kids

    This was where I got mine that I had on the Super Duke. Very good instructions and a very nice kit they give you! Mine had a remote which was nice because if somebody can get to the switch and turn it on you may return with a dead battery.... Or hide the switch under the seat or a fairing most can not find!!

    Wait long enough there is a member on the board that may contact you about making you a nice LED kit...

    Correction: He mouthed off to a cop who didn't give him a ticket.

    Excelent post, Mike. I knew we could count on you to make a HELPFUL and INFORMATIVE post.... after all, this thread is in General Motorcycle, not Off Topic. Way to lead by example in a thread started by one of our NEW MEMBERS.

    I disagree. I think this guy is looking for a kid that has pre installed LEDs on his/her person. That way the kid can sit on the back of the bike and make it shinny.

    I'd suggest not making the switch totally inaccessable from the riding position, but hiding it instead. If it's literally under your seat, yeah no one can turn it on w/o you knowing...but then you also can't turn it off in a hurry (like when the po-po's after ya). I had neons on my Water Cooler that the P.O. had installed; the switch was just inside my left leg, under the seat. Out of plain site, but reachable while riding.

    Re: led light kids

    I drilled my switch into the rear fairing underneath right next ot the subframe. You wouldnt find it unless you're looking for it, but you can hit it even when riding if youre like that.

    Re: led light kids

    Why would you need to turn the lights off as you are riding and the Po Po is after you?

    Wouldn't you just stop and turn them of then?

    I meant more back in my squid days before I learned how to ride if I was just cruising around town Id have them on, but when I went to ride home Id want them off on the highway or something, so I can just hit the switch while riding.
