Thanks for the fitting post,with all them wires it must have built in indicators.I found this one,a lot better price and only three wires.Am gonna put clear indicator lenses on my max,i think this will look good. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262955365146?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

The LED one have yellow flasher integrated thats why it got two more wires
Also they blink three times when braking, wich is verry secure
Pretty simple to plug on the VMax
But incandecent model wont do all this

:ummm::ummm:I just cant tell, would it have the brigthness and durability of the original (motodynamics) :ummm::ummm:
Have mine since 4 or 5 years without any issue

After your choice`s done; some stick the lens under the plastic fender (pretty easy) as shown in VMF post

For myself; i did modify the fender steel frame to bolt in the new lens (it`s bolt in, not glued) wich is hard work; who needs welding, cutting and braking steel sheet.unk:

So me trying to be thrifty bought a used cbr tail light,it has no turn signal resistors with it.I would like to keep my stock turn signals,should i just wire up the stop/tail light or does that need resistors also.

 

[Bill Seward]

You wouldn't need resistors for brake or tail lights.

 

[effingidiot]

Thanks Bill.

I'd do the diode mod in the gauge unit.

No resistor for me, and I'm not having any issue.. and it fixes the voltage leak from the signal turn gauge bulb.

I can swap incandescent and LED turn signals lights without ever having to worry about resistors again.

I found my picture of this project i did

I did it without glued it, its all bolt as it should
A little bit tricky :bang head:

Good job,nicely done.

I took the easy route.

I bought mine here:

Very well-made unit with integrated turn signals and brake flasher. Also came with a resistor pack to make it work correctly.

Integrated CBR LED Tail Light Mounting

Hello from Quebec City. Found your post looking for tips before starting the CBR mod on my 2007, great work on yours! Motodynamics has 2 models: clear and smoke. My max is black so I was getting ready to buy the smoke version but a question just popped about the licence plate light, or absence of! I guess when you incline the plate up, the unit serves as plate light? Then maybe I should go with clear lens to avoid KGB questioning? Thanks

On the CBR light I fitted there was no number plate light illumination.

I fitted to small lamps (the round black blobs) to take care of this.

Great idea, and these look good. On mine are just dull bolts, just waiting to get trashed! 2 questions : are your lights self-powered or ignition-wire-battery-connected? And where can I get those? Thanks in advance

 

[MaxMidnight]

They are wired in to the tail light so come on with the ignition.

These are the sort of things you want. Note that the SS pillars that they go through is something I added.
