Looking for a new tail-light...
04/19/09 at 18:51:24
I'm looking for a new tail light!
Would like to mount it under the rear fender. I'm moving my plate to the left rear axl-bolt Vertical style with a couple LED's to light it up at night. I plan to put the Harley "Nightster" marker lamps in the front and rear as well. But can't seem to find a tail-lamp that likes me...
I also plan to black out my bike... I would like to get "Black Denim" like on the IRON883 and Nightster, but don't wanna spend an arm and a leg. Any ideas on something close???
What are your ideas on BBQ Black paint? Saw a bike painted like that... um yeah, I want something nicer... Cleaner looking.

Check out this site:
http://www.jirehcycles.com/
(Look at the Harley Section)
They have some good lights and prices including some under the fender lamps. You can get their catalog sent to you. The sent a huge paper catalog the first year (in black and white), but this year's catalog was on CD with color pics.
FYI...their online search is the worst I've ever seen. But their prices are good. Get the catalog.

somebody posted on here with their mods and had some LED tail lights and brake lights. I think that the website even showed it wrapped around the license plate and was virtually un noticed until it lit up.
I have searched but not seen that particular article.

Don't know if this is what you might be looking for but here's the thread for the mod I did with the LED wrapped around the tail light. The tail light is a 3 wire 12 LED tail/brake light I got off of ebay. It works fine but I wanted a brighter, more distinctive effect when braking. So I made the light a 2 wire full-time tail light and added the LED wrap which only comes on when I brake.

I think most of the pics in the thread are with the clear lens cover off. It came off somewhere in the modding process. Shortly afterwards I put a bead of epoxy on the lens, put it back on and forgot about it.

I think thats the one, funny i membered it a little different though....
I did go to the ledbikelight site, i think tucking the turn signals under the fender and adding some extra brakelights would be great. Now I gotta sell the metal bullet lights I bought to replace the crappy plastic rears....... .

Also check with those on here who have swapped out the rear fender. They've probably done a good bit of searching for new tail light ideas.
