Yes... those are not modulating. I am surprised that they were depicted as such by Kisan. I have no personal experience with the LED device that they are marketing; only the incandescent one(s)...
The regular incandescent headlights modulate with no issue; and it is perceptible.
My take on this for you....
1. You can choose to run them; carry the statute with you. If pulled over, explain to the cop what they are and how they work. Show him/her the statute.
2. Take them off and get a refund from Kisan citing that they are not doing what they are supposed to be. If you paid for it with credit card; you will have no problem getting your money back (false representation of product).

I think that I am going to leave them on, and worry about it later.
I have a copy of the statute with the instructions, as well as the bill of sale in my saddle bag. And I feel pretty safe explaining that I am relying on what the vendor sent me.
That should work well everywhere, except for Frederick City! lol
I sent the video to Kisan, and they agreed that it doesn't look right. Why they couldn't have figured that out before marketing them is a bit beyond me.
Anyway, they are going to do some sort of software modification for the LED version, and send me a replacement sometime this week.

So that might be the reason Kisan called me about my order and asked what kind of LED's I am using. When I told him he said he was going to send the non led one but then said he was going to look into it more after I told hime my buddy has been running the led version for awhile now. I guess I will find out tomorrow what they sent me.
I did this when I had them on my VTX. I had a VA state trooper pull me over once because he thought I was signalling traffic to move over (which apparently is illegal in Va). I explained the modulators, he had never heard of them before, showed him the statute and he was ok with it. Said he would pass it along to everyone in his barrack.

well I finally went for my first real ride using version 1 of the LED modulators (replacements should be here monday), and my only real complaint is that EVERYONE PULLS OVER AND TRIES TO STOP!
Ended up having it off more than on.
Hopefully it's not as much of a problem with version 2...
