I have a 1996 1500 red, thinking about led lighting. Looking mostly for legal, red and amber.

maybe some multi colored too

Really like to dress it up nice. I want a big effect going down the road.

any thoughts on products or placement?

Hello and welcome to the forum.
Red can only be used on the rear of the bike and amber can be placed anywhere.
Lights can be placed under the saddlebags, trunk, ring of fire on front rotor covers (amber/amber), in the side vents. If your Wing has a clear winshield, you can put LED's on the bottom and they create a 'Fiber Optic' effect around the edges. You can get 'Angel Eyes' for the rear speaker boxes in red, white or blue. You will also need a switch box to turn the lights on and off and a fuse block for safety.
You can get the Lizard Lights from Kuryakyn and they change through seven different colors and they have a controller.

I have a little over 2500 leds on my 03 and still thinking of adding more! Also the rings for the rear speakers fit the front!

I noticed that these bikes are all sitting still. So it begs the question: " Is it legal to DRIVE down the road at night with all these lights going?" OR are they just for show when sitting still at a gathering or show? It's for sure a light show. Just wondering.

Most of the lights that flash to music, change color or pattern are used on non-moving bikes and trikes. If you ride on the road these lights must be steady on. I had a set of purple LED's that did all these patterns and in order to use them at night they had to be in a non-flashing mode.

Thanks Trike Lady....I kinda figured as much. I can see where they would have their place and show time is one of them. The Law is kinda funny about stuff like that around here. Got stopped once about lights on my trailer blinking but was just a bad trailer connection to gnd. Those lights are pretty though. However, didn't see a trike there so where is yours?

Lights...

In NH, the law says you can have as many lights on a vehicle that you want; but, they all have to work. When they see a space between the lights here; they will pull you over and write you a ticket.

Open question:

How is the law in this regard in your state?

 

[lonewolftx]

still working on it.

I have the old neon tubes in purple and they still work, when they go south I want to bring these lights over from Europe. www.ice4bikes.com
