They look pretty good but I think you have to put a blue light under your bike and have glowing windscreen washers.

i did it to my bike.... looks great, but "functionally" it was not, er, uh, legal?! i didn't get busted or anything, but i just figured they weren't too safe for me in bright daylight, so i have converted mine to extra brake lights and i have new indicators now!

uh, i don't really use brakes all that much

nah, but i didn't have the "extra" brake LEDs hooked up yet on that last ride....... they seriously are not that bright, only really look cool at night time.... red glow all through out the under-carriage (tail section) and bouncing off the pipe ass-well!!! plus, i have a switch to "turn off" any/all lights at the rear, just incase someone is er, uh, "following me" and i don't want them to see which way i go too easily.... i have stalkers!

fun making your bike,
YOURS!

the ultimate in bling is a fender eliminator with a STROBE light fitted into it.
When i saw that farker on someones bike, aside from nearly crashing my car with laughter i was dissapointed that someone even thought of it.
