lol dude it's for bike nights and show's, people love the LED's and all that cool stuff that makes the moto look "COOL"

I got my storbes on my moto for some reason's I can't say here.. ahahahahah

Dude listen I had the daytime running light on also but what I did was just take the bulb out
of the day time running light out and now I can turn my strobes on without the light being in the way.... ahahhaah works like a charm

Not everyone likes them....

I personally think lights and stuff like that are for a completely different type of sportbike crowd. I have really strong opinions about it so I'll keep my mouth shut because I'll probably end up offended a lot of guys here on the forum, LOL

yea i understand stobes for a good time shall we say, but then when u want to run you got to put bulbs back in, so basically all the angel eyes is good for is if i took out my hid bulbs?? haha sound like a hassel..

bikeman11122 03-13-2011 10:07 PM

or i'd have to run a new switch off my battery for when the bike is off i could have them glowing i guess???

in cars they use them as parking lights, most of us just have old orange lights. on bikes its a same concept, and to make your bike look different and cool.

If you buy one of the hid/angel eyes combos can the angel eyes be daytime running lights? Or are thr hids always on? OR is there a way to control them seprately possibly?

I was gonna get some for my bike but if i cant ever see them idk

bikeman11122 03-15-2011 03:03 PM

yea i don't know i'm just scrappin the idea, i don't need them just for when i'm parked.. my bike is good lookin enough

scorpionvmu 03-15-2011 03:11 PM

i think they run of off your running lights. but you can set it up as you please. you can make them just parking lights running it of off the battery with a switch, or you can make them your running lights.

Can't really call LEDs all glam. Here in PA they're legal while riding to provide rider visibility. And I'm extremely visible at night with my LEDs on.

Now having them breathing, flashing or cycling thru the colors is pure ego. Breathe mode in blue goes with the blue of my bike rather well ;)

:icon_doh: haven been able figure it out to be honest, anyone else understand how he seperated the flash of the leds.

gagethemnm 03-22-2011 07:24 PM

he said he just wired them as running lights and as turn signals if that helps. lol my local dealer said they can do it.....but where can i get halo/HID combos and led strips. i found some on Xdcycle.

I have the same thing but have the LED's in my intakes.
You just run a diode on both your turn signal wires.
Mine are the LED's are always on and the turn signal is off and when I hit the turn signal on the blink back and forth.

If you run a switch to your headlight bulb then you can just turn them off and run the angel eye / audi lights by themselves while you are driving around.
