Default bike neons.

Hey anyone here that has neons on there bikes can you help me out. I have no clue where to find the neons for our kind of bikes and are they pretty tough to install?

I think for bikes you dont use neons you use LED's, they fit in places better and they use a lot less energy.

we don't typically use neons, but more often use LEDs...in the form of individual LEDs, LED pods, and flexible LED strips....

you can buy kits, streetglow.com has kits, but you could just go to a place like oznium.com and buy what you need and wire it yourself...

it's not crazy hard to do, i have a 4 strips and 4 pods on my bike...but you have to be pretty comfortable running a lot of wires and stuff, it's definitely no plug in play type stuff...you have to make connectors etc....

let me know if you have any other questions about it

I would pssibly do it on my bike if there was a color that would look good with mine...red would be to extreme and you cant emit(sp?
) black light so I personally decided not to do it for my bike. My opinion it looks nice on bikes butteh gheyon cars.

No, you're wrong. Ghey is interrupting threads with ignorant comments.
