Posted December 5, 20186 yr Bought some of these in amber for $10 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018GYMOZ0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 to replace the parking bulbs in the headlight. Then I wired them into the blinker circuit for a nice clean forward facing blinker setup. Now that I have the forward facing blinkers covered I'll consider some flush mounts where the old ones where, I wasn't too keep on flush mounts on the 2018 because the radiator shrouds kind of block them from in front. They are probably 20% brighter then the floppy oems and when I setup the HID projector and black out the whole center of my headlight housing the blinkers should really stand out. Yes I'm aware I still need a digital blinker relay to reduce the flasher rate, it's on my to do list. Sorry I couldn't show it with the headlight on, it's midnight here and I didn't want to start the bike and walk everyone up. Edited December 5, 20186 yr by RojoRacing

I doubt people will see them very well head on (oncoming traffic, not directly at you, ha!) at night but other than that I'm confident they will be noticed diagonally to you or from the side and they do look great!

Link isn't working anymore, what's the bulb size/type?

Thank you! I'm getting the bike next month, and planning on doing what OP did, but with a switchback bulb, which looks like this should work. Now just need to verify if the polarity does indeed switch OEM. 194 LED Switchback Edited April 29, 20205 yr by xfonts
