integrated tail light install
#11
front has ground and turn wires; back they wired the turn signal grounds to the tail light. If it were stock than you would have two wires for the TS instead of 1.
you dont need new brake pads to make the bike "think" that your braking. You need to rewire your tail light. Take a picture of the tail light where all the wire go into it and another of where the wires connect and Ill help you sort it out.

yea that extra wire on the bike side is the ground that would go to the stock signals, since you have an integrated taillight, the turn signals use the same ground as the tail light that why there is only one wire for the turn signals. My integrated taillight just came in as well so I will take pictures.

Ok i finally have time to post some pics up..ok here we go
top red black and yellow are the aftermarket LED's bottom are the stock wires, all green(ground) green/yellow and brown
stock turn signals left and right(2 wire connections) plate light(white)
LED left and right turn signals...this is where i'm lost lol...a friend of mine who rides told me to connect the yellow to the stock yellow/green and the blue to stock brown wire (which i wouldnt know exactly how to go about it since im not an electrician lol), i'm still at work so i'll try later, but if this isnt correct please let me know asap so i can stop using hand signals which just take away from the ride :/ thanks guys!!

stupid questions are fine in my book, I ask them all the time. But your in luck the flashers will work reguardless of the other flashers. I would recommend getting an LED flasher relay you can find them for pretty cheap. I think newenough . com has one for $12 and its just better than resistors.
