    Questions on building an LED light bar

    Do you just want accessory blinkers or a full on set of led blinkers? If you replace incandescent lamps with LED turn signals you'll need a LED flasher assembly or load resistors. Also said you'll need a few odds and ends like a load resistor for indicator lights if you dont replace the flasher...

    LED and parts sourcing?

    The one im using currently is that one. And I thought out the problem with leaning already. It does need to be higher when the bike is leaned, as the light on the inside hits low, and the outside hits high. Having more throw side to side would also help with seeing further down the road.

    Yep, getting them passed by DOT or other agencies probably isnt viable for me at the moment. I'll stick with offroad lights for now. Dimmers are another option, but im not sure how they tie in legally. I'll cross that bridge when I get design and building down. Once the main design is made up it...

    Amish men jailed over refusal to use orange safety triangle on buggies

    Ive seen amber strobes on their buggies before. Each amish sect or clan has different rules on what they can wear, drive (even in the case of mennonites), etc. Most dont fully agree totally on everything. Some are allowed phones, but only outside of the home. Some wont even use electricity...

    LED Driving lights for a motorcycle

    Funy you mention the ADV monster lights and making a set.. thats why im here on this site now. Im wondering if I can make a better mousetrap (LED driving light in this case), or a cheaper one. As far as they go, they're great. I own the 30 and 60 watt models. Both put out about the same amount...
