Thats funny, cause you said exactly same thingas i did

 

haha i completely skipped over your post and didnt even see that you had that same question.

i guess its an electrical mystery that no one knows the answer to...

VIDEO REVIEWS

 

I just bought running light modulators from Watsen design that are made specifically for Honda's. Takes out the guess work and they don't get hot.

Used them on my new Rizoma's.......and the modulators work great.

 

I believe once you turn the signal on, the relay cuts the power from the running light wire. (my theory anyway)

 

well, that comment just helped me realize how it works. i just checked out my bike somemore, and that is what it does. the running lights give it a constant 12 volts. then, as soon as you turn the turn signal on, it completely cuts the running light until you press the turn signal switch to stop the signal. then, the turn signal relay just does its job of turning the light on and off. thanks for helping me realize that!

Homemade vaporizers

 

I have followed all of the wiring diagrams from this page and I still can not get the Hotbodies front LED flush mounts and my Clear Alternatives integrated tail light blinkers to work together!!! I have tried everything and getting more frustrated every minute. I am using resistors on all lights, the resistors I'm using are 20 watt 5 ohms. I see on here that Bradfrd24 mentioned 20-25 watt, 8 ohm resistors, would using those solve my problem?

 

Another PERFECT WRITE-UP....The Diagrams are exactly what needed to be done!! Thanks Everyone!

 

i want to do the same thing to the turn signal LED's in my passenger footpegs. is there a running light wire in the rear to tap into? i believe the black/brown wire stays on all the time, whether the turn signals are on or not, since it powers the license plate light and taillight. i don't really like the idea of having to run a wire from the front fairing to the passenger footpegs, so if there's another wire somewhere, tell me where it is!

and platinumrider - make sure the diodes aren't backwards. i could be wrong, but i was under the impression that the diodes prevent current from flowing backwards, so if you installed them backwards, that will keep your blinkers from working.

 

Wow nice write up. Thanks for all the help guys. I had one question. Where do you wire the resistor to? Which wire to which.

 

You wire up the resistors to each power wire. You should need 4 resistors if I am reading that right. My question is about the diode is that a in5400 or 1n5400 and could I pick them up at my local radio shack
