I may be long, but I fold up nicely

That is more than a fair deal mate.....

Nice looking light assembly.

I imagine that the new board will be even more expensive than the $95 option that started this thread though...but I ride in Melbourne traffic so I need everything I can lay my hands on to get them to put down the phone and drive the bloody vehicle  Smiley

I had a look at the pricing and it was going to start around $160 for a straight board and go up to over $200 for one with extra LED's
and bulit in indicators.
As I said looks the goods but If R_usty says he's done it for about $20 I'm keen to see that option.

Do know what you mean about talking phone drivers not paying enough attention.
When I get to talk to R_usty I'll let you what it is and how it goes.

cheers

I have the LED tail light (RED when on) and clear lens with the clear DP LED blinkers (Orange when blinking) as well. All nice and neat....  Cool

Also have the Suprabrake flasher hooked up. Rear tail light flashes for a brief period before going solid RED. If using brake constantly (stop - go traffic) light will only be solid. Has a "brain" to control flashes / solid tail light. MonsterParts is the go for all this stuff.

All works a treat....  waytogo

Hey Big T
I was considering on getting the brake light flasher. Do you think that the flashing captures the attention of cagers? Have you had any near misses where you believed it actually worked?

Hey Six
No near misses so must be working .....  Grin  Grin  Grin

I saw one working on a BMW in traffic once and it definitely caught my eye so I got one.

I like the Suprabrake as it doesn’t flash all the time which could annoy drives in traffic.

So gets my  waytogo  waytogo  waytogo  waytogo  waytogo

Anything to alert cagers of "me" on the road is money well spent in my book....  [moto]

Check this on out people.
It also comes in a whole tail unit made from Carbon Bling....
but this looks pretty neat for the cost of the SupaNova system.

They look quite good. I have a work friend who added one on his cibie when he did his fenderectomy. My only concern was the LED brightness contrast between being on and when it lit up for the brakes. It was not a big difference. Other than that - it was quite neat.
He bought a cheapy from ebay. I can get more details if you like. He also added the rego tube as well. Very minimal rear end.
