LED lights

[ankhman]

I cannot believe how much I like the 2008 FJR. By far the best all around machine I have rode in 25 years and I do mean a MACHINE! I would like to add some additional lighting to the rear end for greater visability. Has anyone tried the BackOff LED plates or brake modulator system. I am thinking of installing these, anyone have a thread as to the installment. Thanks!

I installed the backoff module that flashs your brake lights and it works great. You may also want to contact Alex at Real Time Industries for some reflective strips that go on the back of your bags. They blend nicely with the bags and work as advertised. https://www.realtimeindustries.com/catalog/

I've got the Backoff XP on my bike, works great with the LED lights I added.

The lower round lights are hooked to the Backoff, the main brake lights arn't (for contrast).

hyperlites were the first modification/add-on i made to the fjr when i bought it new last year. i've had hyperlites on my motorcycles since '98, can't imagine not having them on.

I got both...and love em.

I've got the dual LED strip black license plate frame from Signal Dynamics.

It and the stock tail lights are all hooked up to a backoff tail light modulator.

I have it set to flash 5 time then stay on steady each time the brakes are applied.

My wife, who rode behind me, before and after the install, says it makes a HUGE difference.

She approves! I also have the reflective sidecase decals. If I get rear ended at night the

perp has got to be blind or a total idiot.

+1 to what Tbird posted. Did the same thing to my bike. Works and looks great.

Thinking about putting strip LED light bars on the back of the side bags for turn signal and brake/running lights. There is a pretty good gap between the outer and inner shell for the wiring. An easy quick release connector between the bag and the frame will finish it off.

I'll take pictures and post it if I carry through with it.
