Lee, what I want to try is to use more and brighter LED's. All the buses & trucks have LED lights, even the traffic lights around here are being converted to LED's. All I have to do is head to Radio Shack and find some ultrabright LED's, then experiment. If it doesn't work, oh well, another $30...

Here's the pictures of the turn signals. They aren't mounted as you can see, I'm just holding them up where I want them. Like I said, from the rear the LED's aren't very bright. The only solutions I've thought of are to mount a small light bulb inside the housing or to make my own mini circuit...

Hopefully people will be able to post pictures and have links on their posts.

I would Byhalia, but they're still in the bag, I haven't mounted them yet. The reason is that where I want them they would be angled such that the LED's aren't very visible from the back. So I've been experimenting with either soldering & moving the LED's or using the plastic shell & lens and...

Byhalia, I'll try and take some pics tomorrow of the turn signals and where/how I am trying to mount them. Check back here.

I want to mount them with the fat part facing the rear. That is the only way to mount them IMHO. But...no matter which way you mount them the LED's optimum position is to see them directly head on, meaning you have to see the turn signals from the side for them to be the brightest.

I've got the same turn signals. Here's the link to the manufacturer: http://www.airtech-streamlining.com/miscairtech/turnsignals.html

Good to talk to a local, DaddyLongStroke. I didn't know next Sunday was Capitol's bike day. I'm going! I started to head down to MIR yesterday but the clouds looked threatening so halfway there I turned around and just got caught in the downpour as I got home. Didn't it rain down there? I...

The tracks around here have been open since March. Loser buys crab cakes & beer!! Bring it on. It's a long way to drive to get a whuppin!!! :)

'lantabusa, e-mail me when you wanna come up & play. corakat@erols.com MIR is good, also Capitol Raceway in Crofton, MD.

And you're gonna get a turbo?!?!? What a joke!

Jamie, I've never been to the track at Cecil County. I've been to Bud's Creek a couple times before and it is in the middle of nowhere, which is why I like it. The tech stuff there is the same as most places: Dead man's switch, helmet, leather jacket, boots, full leathers if you're faster than...

All bike day plus a wheelie contest. Plus it should finally stop raining. This Sunday, August 6th. http://www.mirdrag.com/schedule/superbike.htm

That's because the bodywork is not stock.
