Title: flexible LED blinker strip Post by: DucatiTorrey on September 28, 2009, 05:57:03 AM has anyone used anything like these?
http://www.motorcycle-leds.com/flex-array/ (http://www.motorcycle-leds.com/flex-array/) ive seen them on harley and stuff, and one sport classic GT 1000 Sport as a taillight, but not blinkers, thinking of using them on the back of the 696 Title: Re: flexible LED blinker strip Post by: nkryptit on September 29, 2009, 06:17:33 AM Funny. I was just looking at something like that since I have to rear signals right now. Seems like a cheap, easy, lowprofile way to add blinkers. Seems like they'd work.
Anyone done this? BTW Jim, not sure if you had heard, but I moved to Raleigh. I'll miss the meet-ups :( Title: Re: flexible LED blinker strip Post by: DucatiTorrey on September 29, 2009, 06:24:31 AM yeah how is it there? the last meet up was small, one of the sti kids baught a viper ha ha ha
Title: Re: flexible LED blinker strip Post by: Bones on September 29, 2009, 06:25:29 AM I have the integrated taillight on my monster and just didn't think those signals were good enough, so I added an amber LED strip to the outside of the passenger grab handles. the strip is black, so you can hardly tell its there until you turn them on.

Title: Re: flexible LED blinker strip Post by: jamanta on September 29, 2009, 07:31:42 AM I started a topic a while back about the same thing :)
There's a gentleman here in Oregon who builds those lights and someone here at work has a Paul Smart with these lights. They look pretty cool. I think he's prototyping a model for Monsters as well: http://pakbikes.net/PS1000LE/FLEDAM001.html (http://pakbikes.net/PS1000LE/FLEDAM001.html) and http://pakbikes.net/PS1000LE/FLEDADRWD/FLEDA-DR-WD.html (http://pakbikes.net/PS1000LE/FLEDADRWD/FLEDA-DR-WD.html) Here's the link for the thread I started: http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=28786 (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=28786) Good luck [thumbsup] Title: Re: flexible LED blinker strip Post by: Bones on September 29, 2009, 08:44:55 AM cool which monster is it? pictures? I put them on my '02 M620. can post pics tonight. got the LEDs cheap on fleabay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Car-Bike-Turn-Signal-Flexible-Amber-LED-Light-Strip-Set_W0QQitemZ350255955539QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotorcycles_Parts_Accessories?hash=item518ce1be53&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Car-Bike-Turn-Signal-Flexible-Amber-LED-Light-Strip-Set_W0QQitemZ350255955539QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotorcycles_Parts_Accessories?hash=item518ce1be53&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14) Title: Re: flexible LED blinker strip Post by: He Man on September 29, 2009, 10:02:49 AM I saw them on Bones bike, they are very very visable and look really good. You cant even notice them.
I give it a [thumbsup] and will probably be doing the same to my bike later this winter! Title: Re: flexible LED blinker strip Post by: Bones on September 29, 2009, 03:23:57 PM Again, I use it as auxiliary turn signals because you really can't see the integrated turn signals unless you are directly behind the bike.

Title: Re: flexible LED blinker strip Post by: Bones on October 13, 2009, 11:45:26 AM i think the electronic flasher I got was defective. I didn't use it for that application (I already had capacitors installed) but when I tried to use it on my other bike it wasn't working properly. not sure if I would trust the cheapo chinese flasher they include.
