    LED lighting rocks!

    Isleen is quite fond of her various LED light shows:


    Normal:




    Her slightly illegal "fog lights AND high beams" mode (most states require that the fog lamps be automatically disabled with high beams on):




    Her high beam modulation by Kisan:




    Her high beam modulation with "for stationary use only" strobes:

    Saorla - 1995 FLSTN Heritage Special

    I just got done disconnecting and removing those new generation white round LED badges from my F6B. They’re just way too bright for the sides, and the wrong application for a Matte Silver F6B ...IMHO. Takes away from the overall look.

    Thank gawd I had some extra Punisher badges to reinstall in thier place, since that 3M tape nessitated destruction of the previous ones, even with a heat gun involved.

    Steve do your turns blink yellow or are they white all the time and blink white also? I have the smoked lenses and they are clear/smoke when the key is off but go yellow when the key is on and blink yellow. What do you have?

    Per regulations, they are amber for turning.
