I am interested in getting one of these for my S2R 800, but have read several posts where people are having trouble with the LED turn signals.  Does anyone have one of these taillights that has been problem free?

http://www.motodynamic.com/product_info.php?cPath=17_18&products_id=199

I know a lot of people don't post unless they have had problems with a product....but I want to see if there is any positive feedback for this taillight.

I have it. No problems other then the fact that all my signals are LEDs so i needed resistsors.

they are really helpful with help via phone too.

I would highly recommend this product over the CA unit. i just wish ti wasnt smoked cause it makes it a bit harder to see.

Why use resistors? A proper solid state flasher relay would be the better solution, no? Not sure how the ducati wiring is, but I built a complete wiring harness for my toy bike and used an elfr1 flasher relay due to running all led's and it works great.

I've had no problems with mine, but only had it a couple of months.  I didn't need any resistors and I've got LED's all around.

haven't had any issues with mine, and I've had it about 9 months. For the price, I'd buy it again. And they gave me 5 bucks off for being part of the DMF  waytogo

Honestly, I haven't seen too many for sale used but i would say anywhere from 50-60 bucks depending on the condition.

I am really pleased to see they have a 3-flash alert for the brake circuit.

Given that a TailBlazer drop-in replacement costs $60, this is a deal.  I am buying it .

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

OK..so I got the Motodynamic taillight...in clear, not smoke.  I blew 1 fuse during the install, I think I pinched a wire putting things back together.  Now, everything works whether  the bike is running or not.  I'm very happy with it so far!
