Default Do you have LED lights! (FOR LOOKS)

Just wondering if you guys have colored LED lights around your bike for looks, like around the frame or undertail. I'm thinking about putting some on my bike, but not sure what it would look like because I have no chrome, and my paint is yellow. SHOW ME SOME PICS!

I have a few white ones in my undertail illuminating my rear tire and swing arm. It's a little ricey but I don't care, may add some under the gas tank frame area for ****s and giggles.



Yes I know you can see the wires however this was problem was fixed already. Does real good with the SS can.

So screw anybody who doesn't like it, F them its your bike do what you want.

I'd pick them up at Auto Zone, in the import car section. They have a ton of lights to choose from!

Auto Zone does have a wide selection of Neon lights; however, I went with the LED's to save my battery. For instance..my friend with Neon's his battery will last about 3 hours. Mine we tested with them on and left them on overnight. Another thing to consider when deciding on the lights to add.

Granted I put mine is shows where I want to keep the lights on for longer than 4 hours.

Next, Neon lights give a nice even show of light. Some of the new LED's now do the same.

My two cents.
