Title: Integrated Tail
Post by: Bellagio on January 11, 2009, 07:13:17 PM
Just wondering how many of ya'll have used the Clear Alternatives (or similar) integrated brake/turn indicator kit?  I'm attracted to it, but I'd like to know if it's a good set up.  Definitely removing the beer tray to clean up the ass end.  If I got the integrated tail, all I'd have to do would be get a piece of metal to mount the license plate to and the Buell plate light, correct?

I bought an integrated led on ebay (not clear alternatives) it had clear plastic on bottom so it shines on my plate.

Thanks for the input.  The order is in.  Is it normal that I haven't even taken delivery and I'm already ordering parts?  The quest for perfection on your bike is a never ending journey...

keep in mind integrated brake/turn indicator is not legal by DOT.  Some areas enforce it more than others.

I live in Milwaukee, so I'm not thinking it'll get enforced that hard here.  I always use hand signals and law officers are always glad to see younger people following old school rules.

good to hear.  there are a few cities around here (SoCal) where it is a guaranteed fix-it ticket.
