I think you need to build a dual circuit.  Here is a great example I found that should work.

I wired my LED strip as the Chrome Glow instructions said, I have turn signals and brake but no running. There is only 3 wires coming from the strip, one black and two red. Not exactly certain how they got all the lights to work in the video. Any suggestions anyone??

Run, Brake, Turn Signals would be the reason I would buy the LED strip.  Was considering that purchase, now rethinking that move.  Thanks for posting for us, the video was misleading for sure.

Yeah, I think the video is from a shop that installed the product on a customers bike.  They must have built the circuit I'm guessing.  If you look on Chrome Glows site they only list is as a Brake/Turn Signal.

Ok, upon further communication with Chrome Glow I found out that (24V) is absolutely correct; I need to add a "Dual Element Circuit" to each power wire coming out of the light bar, if I want running lights in addition to brake and turn signals. I just ordered two of Chrome Glows part #6122-00. ($6.00 each) This should fix the problem. I will post the results after the parts arrive. I will also take a daylight pic for those that want it.

Sounds like an easy fix, I look forward to your review.

Thanks CUZCO.  I am anxious to see how the light looks in the daytime.

Just installed mine.  Wow, what a great improvement!

Installed with running light, turn signal and brake.

The running light is just a little brighter than the two side lights, so it sure will be ok in daylight.  I'll try to take a picture tomorrow if I arrive early.

Shipping from FL to Qc took 2 days!  But!!!!!!  Unless you really can't wait, ask for USPS shipment if you're Canadian... With UPS brokerage, the shipping cost climbed at $80!

 

But easily forgotten, looking at that badass beauty!

Here is what it looks like installed without being lit up. I had previously installed a sportster taillight inplace of the reflector.

For those who asked for daylight pictures...

Here's one, end of afternoon, sun directly behind me... Worst case.

Running light + right flashing

2 minutes later, back of my house...

Still running light and right flashing...

Note: When installing, you have the option to place the strip directly on the border of the fender or just behind the fender lip.  I prefered the second option cuz I prefer to see the lip (still a little orange paint that I don't want to mask  ) and see less of a plastic strip.  CUZCO's will probably be brighter and easyer to see from all angles.  Matter of taste, but looking at both, whatever the option, still the best looking bike there is !!!!
