I have the Kuryakyn 3236 LED along with a pair of Hyper Lites. They really get noticed when I'm on the Brakes..Quote:

The P3 lights function as running, brake, and turn signals (optional). They are very bright and I think improve the visibility quite a bit. (of course, the very wide red butt on the fast red model is already pretty visible, but every little bit helps).
The lights have a flicker by design in all modes. The flicker is a specific frequency such that it is very apparent out of your peripheral vision, but is not apparent when looking straight at the lights (hopefully this will get the attention of drivers not already looking at me, but not annoy them when they are stopped behind me at the lights). They also have a flashing pattern when the brakes are applied. There are several options available, but the default is four fast flashes, flour slow flashes, then solid. This flashing really gets the attention of those following.
The install was easy EXCEPT I chose to remove the seat to allow me to run the wires from the backrest a little easier. I wish I hadn't done that. As has been well documented, it was tough to get the seat reinstalled correctly, even though I already had the special "improved" seat bolts from Wingstuff. I will avoid pulling the seat in the future unless it's really necessary. The rest of the install was a breeze, all wires and connections are included in the package from Skene (uses Positaps).
I have attached a few photos for comparison - all photos were taken with the same settings on my iPhone so they can be compared side by side for brightness.

Try the up-dated longer seat bolts from Value Accessories they will solve your problems... The ones sold from "Wingstuff are too short and will not work!!!...I and my dealer tech tried them for over 1/2 hour and gave up finally using the stockers until I got the newer ones from RickWQuote:

First timers removing the seat need to apply "never seize" to your seat bolts. You will never have an issue re installing again. Mine are a breeze.
OPAS RIDE...those lights are very nice !!!!!
So tried (yea, tried) to get the vertical kurykan lights installed today. Rigged up harness, then attached "Y" connector. Both lights work as running lights, however only the left works as a brake light. Tried different plugs with lights. Always the same left work as brake light not left
Defect or not?
