Default "inner fairing" lights

im sure someone or a few people have inner fairing lights. ive decided to install ALOT of them because i have noticed im freaking invisible on my ride to work in the mornings, and at night. light would be practical in getting peoples attention. my question is : which brand did you go with and how did you mount them? and are you happy with the results.

be safe, watch out for the blind cagers

Not sure if this it's exactly what you are looking for but I put two led strips that tied into my rear turn signals. All the parts and pieces can be bought at:
http://www.customdynamics.com/trufle...d_lighting.htm

Here is a picture of them installed. I think the ones I went with were 8"long and have 1 led per mm.

The integrated taillight is dmp with a smoke lens, hotbodies fender eliminator (don't have to worry about the turn signal brave breaking as I'm not using the oem turn signals).

Edit: with the led strips I also picked up the wiring pieces so they could tie into the signals as well as work as driving lights.

With safe regards from the mostly frozen north.

those look awesome! im going for: inside fairing in front cutout, sides, under, under tail onto read tire. but you have given me the led turn signal idea. i like that alot ive also been eye balling the led brake lights online. i was thinking clear though, not sure. how bright is it when just runing, and braking?? can you actually tell when the signals are on in the brake light?

again, thankyou for the input

The brake light is led and plenty bright. The turn signals in the brake light flash amber so they stand out quite a bit, the led's I added help with visibility and double as their own running light/turn signal. Will try to go through the video I have and take a screen shot when they are flashing.

Your welcome, glad I could help. As far as going with a smoked lens or not, I would try to choose one that compliments your bikes color. I went with the smoked lens dmp because the rest look like they have alot of chrome to them. I figured it would look like a big chrome sphincter on my black cbr so I shopped for another option. Or as a guy I worked with once would say "Shines like a diamond in a goats a$$".

This what you are looking for?

The turn signals underneath in back fell off (lol) but the brake light(underneath) is still there.

The light gives my bike little white wings at night. AIRBORNE
