JohnBoy Serious Thumper Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 825 Gender:	Re: New Tail light Reply #9 - 09/02/10 at 13:06:35 I like this light very much, but have some questions. Is it LED or incandescent? Is it a duel circuit brake and tail light? Does it include a tag light? Is it wired up through the existing tail light hole? This is a great look and the price is right! JB

Looks a lot like mine,... mine is LED, brake/tail... Not very bright in daylight,... fine at night...
... and the LED's tend to vibrate loose on the circuit board...
I've had too re-solder several...

PS,.. isn't covering the license number on a net pic kinda' silly?... we ride around all day with it showing...
Couldn't the guy behind you at the traffic light, do whatever evil with it, as anyone on the forum?...

Ludicrous Speed !... ... Huh

Mine is incandescent.It is a dual circuit.It does have a taglight.When I had mine on the fender I ran the wires in the stock location.

Maybe I`ll turn the light upside down so that it lights up the licenceplate. Peter
