• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Spyderpops or Tricled for the rear brake/turn Led set up, What are people using? There just doesn't seem to be enough lights in the back.:shocked::f_spider:
Looking for the next set of farkles and there seems to be a big price difference.
 
Easy DIY

I got these:

And they truly are DIY! And I am very, VERY mechanically challenged.

Everything I needed was included, and except for help getting the read panel on [sometimes you need a third hand!], I did everything by myself in about 90 minutes.
Your signature indicates a 2016 RT-SE; these will work and look great on that!

Thats one of the kits I'm looking at. It's less expensive then the Tricled kit.
 
I also have the third brake light that stays on with the parks and gets brighter with brakes applied. I have the brake part of the the third brake light and the led strips wired to a strobe unit that flashes the them. The regular brakes light work as designed by BRP.

Lastly, I have the reflectors on the sides replaced with LEDS and I have a little unit that hooks in line that flashes them in time with the signal lights, this is so cars that are pulling up along side me cans see my intention to change lanes or turn.
 
I've got the 3rd and 4th Brakelights from TricLEDs on my bike...

But the Missus is looking to add some more lumens back there... we're in the "negotiation stage" regarding TricLEDs' new LEDs for the edge of the saddlebags: they act as running, brake, and stop lights!

I see that and they are both red and amber.
Good luck with you negotiation
 
with the Spyderpops lights the whole left or right side blinks with the blinker on

Joe, I have the same lighting system that you have ( RT brt rear lighting kit, now with 4 sections, brake/run turn SPY 184) but I am using them as a running/brake.

They are bright, and I like them, people that are behind me can see when I put on the brakes, and as a running light. Deanna
 
I have the" rt brt rear lighting kit now with 4 sections, brake/run/turn". I am only using them as a brake/running and I bought them from Spyderpops. They came with instructions, very simple to follow.

Great idea :yes: Kathy told me that the turn signals on the back are hard to see in the day light. Just ordered these from Lamont.
