LP Turn 6's up front

I hated the flushmounts the PO installed, so I threw these on the front today... I like em. the only thing is they are LED's and they go blinkity-blink a helluva lot faster now... Does anyone know what to add as far as resistance? I am not so sharp with 'lectrics...

www.vfxkits.com sells some cool stuff too. They have a module that has like 21 different programmable flash sequences and will also straighten out the flash rate. They also sell a running light kit for LEDs. I have 'em both on the 1000RR and the 600RR.

I spent all winter searching for signals for my bird. Found nothing that I liked. The signals that look like they are the size of homeplate don't work for me. I finally went to Cycle Gear and bought a set of Motrax. They have superior forward look - most FM look great from the side but are difficult to see from the front or the back. I know because I have some of the real typical **** on the back of my bike. Fukem, if they're behind me I could give a **** - it's the morons in front of me that I want to know my every intention.

Do you mean that it will make a two-wire marker light act like a three-wire running light?

Yes, it will also act like a small nuclear reactor such that you and your adjacent neighbors will never have to buy electricity from the local providers again!

Very cool, I tried em both ways, I kinds think mine are on backwards!

Thanks for the tip about the relay for sale... I bought them from Cycle Gear (assuming that is what CG stands for) but I did not see the relay.

I see you are in Loxahatchee. Yall got some twistees up there, no? West Lox road was a good one if you could avoid the cement trucks. I used to live in Fort Lauderdale! My buddy races at moroso, dude by the name of Damien. Rides gay-*** R-1's tho...

Yeah that's what it stands for I was just lazy, they're on the Motrax wall,(the relay), usually in the back of the store. Where do you go the Tampa store?

Nuhawk had me rollin' on the floor... "it will also act like a small nuclear reactor such that you and your adjacent neighbors will never have to buy electricity from the local providers again!"

Coulsd have been the drink that made it so damn funny! But I think it was timed just perfect!

Yeah, it was a regular side-splitter... Sorry I didn't type "LOL" but I have a sore spot for Progress Energy these days... The bastards cut my power for an hour and a half once a month at midnight for some energy saving thing, like clockwork. Always when I come home from work, and I want to eat something. Bastards!

I actually go to the Pinellas Park store, I am going to the Tampa store next time tho, are you guys having that sale on Dunlops like they are up here in the next week or two? That is an unbeatable deal! I am hoping to have my rims painted by then...

Agreed that Moroso is *****... Where the F is Jennings?

Yeah the FLA stores will be the 13th and the rest will be the 20th I believe. 190/55+120/70 $199.99 180/55+120/70 $189.99 for the Qualifiers, not too bad.

Jennings is the last exit on I-75 before you hit Ga. nice motorcycle only track with lots of open track days.
