LED Indicator Lights

Recommended Posts

Has anyone made the change over to LED indicator lights?  I like the look of the smaller turn signals and brake light plus they are brighter than the stock lights.  I am thinking about fabbing up a license plate holder and attaching it down by the rear axel and getting rid of the stock license plate holder and brake light mount.  

 

Id like to add add a slim brake light in place of the old and change out the turn signals with something a little more sleek similar to this:

and something like this for the turn signals:

I understand that I may need a capacitor for each set of lights but want to confirm this...has anyone done this mod?

 

Thanks in advance

You may be able to just replace the flasher unit with a mechanical one that regulates the flashing accordingly. I haven't tried one on a V11, but I've used these on similar Japanese bikes. http://www.delcity.net/store/Electromechanical-Flashers/p_90171.h_90270.t_1.r_IF1003?mkwid=IBiyd8xL&crid=38094426869&gclid=Cj0KEQiAgMKmBRDMjo_F9OfUubABEiQAp8Ky1znp7d3YqFQywivEsVnEl4ruBS2TLeNOezlADkTVN5QaAtaQ8P8HAQ

A search here may help you out, or others may chime in shortly. FYI, the flasher is located under the seat, next to the battery.

Rizoma make some great looking LED indicators and they sell a compatible flasher. They're not cheap. I looked into them, but decided against. Instead I just shortened the fender and tinted the turn signal lenses. I did get their fluid tanks, which are very high quality.

Something like this? I did this many moons ago, the tail light came from a guy on this board I think and the led indicators were eBay items. All are very bright and have worked well.

That's a nice looking taillight --would you happen to know where it was sourced?
