Clear LED turn signals
I have a set of clear LED turn signals on 'the block'...exactly like the pic. I can send more pics if you need them.
They'll definitely mount on a VTR...they were on mine about 2 months. I just didn't like the fact they're only 2 wire signals, no running lights. I definitely need the visibility here in sunny Vegas.
Wiring included to splice into existing turn signal wires, and homemade backing plates for fairing inner. Backing plates are ugly, but unseen when mounted.
$25 shipped to you (in the US). Canada or overseas slightly higher (PM & I'll check).

I have these too and other than not having the running light capability, I like the looks and they are bright. A good fit on the Superhawk as they cover the stock signal holes completely. Mine have connections that plug directly into the stock so no splicing.

Normally you can't rewire LEDs for running lights, but there are several companies out there that make separate kits to allow it. One of them is www.vfxkits.com. I have some of their stuff on both CBRs.

The question is can you splice from these http://www.vfxkits.com/c229412.2.html feeding the front TS and run to the rear and have running lights back there to (as I have now), or have to buy a second kit for $46 bucks?
Finally, just use their flasher and running light kit and anybody elses 2-wire LED TS?

No, to add running lights. Adding wire from the running light circuit, you’d put the resistor in line to reduce the voltage to the LED by about 60%. Then put a diode in both hot leads to keep the voltage from backing up into the other bulbs in the system, so a turn signal doesn’t look like hazard lights.
