First off this things are bright and they look good as an added bonus. Smiley  They are identical to the Zero's but instead of multiple LED's, they have only one LED and the metal stalk is now rubber.  I believe that the metal stalk is causing the housing to crack due to vibrations.  The replacement rubber stalk is flexible and will absorb most of the vibrations.

Installation was pretty straight forward, the only difficult part is finding a place to hide the gigantic load boxes.  They are about W 1 and H 2.5 inches.  Total of 4 load boxes, one for each signals.  Only place that i found to hide the load box for the front signals is in front of the air filter housing.  I used a 3m double sided tape to hold it in place.  For the rears, i placed the boxes inside the side covers and again used the 3m double sided tape to keep them in place.  Its been 3 days and 160 miles and they are (load boxes) still in place waytogo

Sweet, very nice. asado; Can you take pictures of those load boxes, and tell me what they are for. I am considering replacing my sock turn signals. I also would like to know if they blink faster than the stock signals.

Thanks for your help..

Thanks.  Pics are up.  I believe that the turn signals are made for 10v and our battery is 12v.  It will burn the LED if connected directly.  The blink rate is the same as stock

Nice, and thanks for the information, I have been looking for nicer turn signals, but the ones I found they all blink faster than the stock, and I don't like that.
Again man, your bike is looking better and better every time.

Thanks.

I've got these on the way too but I'll be using the Track 77s up front. I figured the load boxes would mount on the front of the airbox, seems like the only place for them. The rears wouldn't fit under the seat?

skurvy,
Its tight if you place the boxes under the seat (not enough room due to the tool kit).

gotcha, thanks for the heads up... I take it, it's two wires into the box, two wires out? Just connect the two wires from the bike's wiring -> load box -> signals? Is it that easy?

asado - I like where you mounted those big boxes.  I was able to sqeeze mine in beind the headlight.  After moving it around a few times I found a few spots where I can zip ty them in without any clearance issues.  When the front wheel is turned all the way to the right you can see the box but it blends in well enough.

Looks nice.  indicators are on my list, but pretty far down.  I saw those online but was wondering what they looked like installed.  thanks for the pics.

How dare you call that thing a tool kit.  Wink
