no one here made one but harlan was a popular brand to go with being so cheap but there is no customer service.
 
Im waiting on raptor performance duel stage shift light toshow up at my house. I also got cycle one off shift light mount. It cost 150 for light and 70 for mount after its installed I will post what I think.
 
Paul, I think you'll really like the Ecliptech progressive shift light. I got one last July and like the colored lights around the speedo. Did you get the curved green / yellow / red unit ?
 
KosRider it is on my wish list, but I do want the curved green/ yellow/ red unit. I have other things I am working on, they are first. Got to do bed swap and everything from the leaf springs to the axle for my pick up that was wrecked a few weeks ago. But the best the thing is I have a free donater truck to take from. All the while trying to buy things from Sean for my Max. Thank god Sean is understanding.
 
Those ecliptech multi stage lights are pretty cool. If I needed onethats probably what I'd go with.

I have a simple Raptor shift light. Lights up red at 9200. Sometimes in the rain or after washing it wigs out, but always fine again once it dries. Been on there for 5 years now and still works fine. There's little dials on the side to adjust the light up rpm. Came with a plastic clip holder that's stuck to the side of the speedo.
 
LOVE the ecliptech. basically replaces the tach if you do it right.
 
I have the Raptor single stage. It does what it is supposed to and accurately. I have it set at 9200 to let me know I'm getting close. My Dyna 3000 rev limiter is set at 9500. I do wish it were a bit brighter while in full sun, but that means it would be basically blinding at night. When it is not in direct sunlight, it is relatively easy to see out of the corner of your eye. I hate looking down or anywhere else but on the road when I am going through the gears on my bike.... I wish it was a 2 stage, however I have my ear fine tuned fairly well now and can almost tell you what RPM I am at , +/- 100 RPM, just by hearing the engine/exhaust note.

Hell, there is nothing from him anymore. It's almost like he fell off the face of the earth.
It's seems like he has fallen off the face of the earth. I will replace my Harlan when it quits working or when I change my speedometer out to a Koso RX1. Mine has been a reliable and it does the basic job of a single mode shiftlight pretty well.
Here are some pictures of my setup:

I run the Raptor mounted right next to the speedo. Easy to see it come on under full power without taking your eyes off the road. It is also programable via dip switches to come on at the RPM you set.

Mine too, I haven't had any issues with it at all.
Then again, I didn't have any issues with the Raptor or the one that came with the big tach when I was running them.
