    Great looking product to add some bling as well as an additional safety feature. I was going to keep my RT-S as close to stock as possible--but this item I must have. Let us know when we can put in an order.

    Default Installation

    That really does look like original equipment, very clean and super bright.

    Curious to know how this installs and how you route the wiring on a cover that hinges open and closed? Will you be posting the installation instructions on your web-site?

    Sorry but there are no plans for a black HMT unit as of now.

    Unfortunatly most of the RTS's ether have the factory installed chrome package, or have had the BRP chrome package added to them. We have not seen enough non-chrome RT's to make the numbers work for a black production run.

    Evan designs and develops these products. He has sold the business to Custom Dynamics, to concentrate on product development, but has retained the rights to sell to us here on SpyderLovers via ESI.

    WOW.

    Nice product. When I first saw it, I was very intrigued.
    I still like it a lot, great idea, but I'm afraid that it's a little too rich for my blood.
    Not criticizing..........just saying.
    If it ain't broke, don't break it.

    Ah!! Thank you for the info...

    The price is higher than I would like of course. But I already had a lifted truck that almost creamed me from behind. I got off the bike and asked what happened... He claimed ho could not see my tail lights do to the angle... He was judging my by how the bike was reacting...

    While this makes since, and really how many folks actually do follow us with the 4 second rule anyway? Yes he should have been following me farther back. Clearly a bike can slow down faster than a lifted 3 ton truck...

    But it only takes one person to make it so I can no longer ride... So I will be buying one. Only question is from who can I get one the soonest

    You can't do better than the ESI lights! If you can afford it, I would also recommend the mudflap lights. If I had my RTS in my possession, the third brake light and mudflap lights would be on it now.

    BTW, the standard is the two second rule, in good weather. That's 102 feet at 35 mph and 204 feet at 70 mph. That exceeds the one car length for each 10 mph, that they used to teach. Seldom seen these days...tailgating is an epidemic! I wish they could still give tickets for it.

    Thanks... As to your 2 second rule thoughts... I was a trainer for many years... The 2 second rule ended for us around the late 80's to early 90's.. The four second took over... Some today call it the "Smith System" Here is a quick link why... http://smith-system.com/articles.shtml

    My state can and does ticket for this. And our new favorite... "Road Rage"... If a person is seen zig zagging in traffic, or slamming on their brakes because someone is following to close (For a few examples).. BAM... Big fine, car towed... Classes in your future...

    I do realize every state is different of course.. But I live by one simple rule... Drive like I am invisible... AKA Defensive/offensive

    Interesting! They always do things differently on the West Coast. They stopped writing tickets for things like "reckless driving", "tailgating", "excessive noise", and such here years ago, after they found the standards were up to officer discretion, and were too vague to be upheld in court. Now the only tickets issued are after accidents..."speed too fast for conditions." One trip down I-94, with cars drafing like the front straight at the Daytona 500, will put fear in your heart for a lifetime. These idiots just don't get it, and our law enforcement seems powerless to stop it.

    I have a solution...outlaw power steering and power disc brakes. When drivers are in fear of their lives, and have to keep both hands on the wheel just to turn a corner, things will get better. OK, I'm joking, but too many people are saved by the available technology, so they have developed bad habits...like talking on the cell phone while driving with one hand...or even while parking! End of rant!

    These are some of the things that drive me to make the safety lighting items I do for my Spyders and then sell to all you good folks.

    If even one of the items I have invented help people been seen better and save just one Spyderlovers life, (or even my own) it will all have been worth the long hours and hard work to bring them to market.

    I agree. Our Driving schol teaches 3 to 4 seconds here in Ohio. I say that is the alsolute minimum.

    A question you might ask your local driving school, is do they teach motorcycle awareness ? I teach a two hour block on sharing the road with motorcyles, bikes and semi trucks.

    What's the latest on the RT brake light. Is it available for order? I went to your website and do not see it listed.

    Like this posts title says, the HMT is for the RTS model Spyders as your RS has no trunk.

    If you have a RS model than you'll need one of these center tail light units.

    This unit features 36 Genesis Series LEDs for unmatched brightness, and come in a contoured to your trunk chrome housing.

    Filling in the "void" area along the trunks top edge, this is the light that BRP should have had there in the first place. It's "high mount" design is much more noticable for drivers behind you just like the third brake light in a car's rear window.

    With a very easy install procedure, and plug and play connections to your RTS wiring harness. We think even those not normally confortable doing their own mods will be able to do this one no problem. Giving them a Quick Convenient, Safe and Secure installation they can do at home themselves!

    Now that the Beta unit has been checked, full production will begin with the first units being for sale towards the end of the month.

    We will also be offering an optional 2 in 1 harness that will allow this light to also finction as an additional running light as well as a HMT Brake Light.

    So, to increase the safety and visibility of your RT, be sure to add a Street Magic HMT!
