Just replaced the right running light with a 2357A.  It works but it's raining and I won't ride it for awhile now.  I'll report back whenever it blows.  Are bulbs under warranty?[smiley=nixweiss.gif]  They are with the car makers.

So, it's 2357A and not 2157A?

As far as warranty, I got my first one free 'cause it happened so soon after I got the bike, but have had to buy the others.  Didn't push it, though.  Maybe I should've? [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

Having the same problem with my right rear turn and running light. have 4000 miles and replaced the bulb twice. I think water is getting into the socket, but it doesn't happen right after a rain. Anybody else have a rea turn signal problem?

LEDs don't blow.  I haven't had any problems.  You may want to consider the LED bulbs.  Just a thought.

I had the same problem, 2 bulbs in 2 weeks. You could see the moisture in the socket. I took the turn bracket apart & used some clear silicone everywhere I figured water could get in. I also used plenty of di-electric grease when I installed the new bulb. It's been 10000 km so far & no problem! [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

Doc,

Do you know a part number or where to get an LED replacement?

/Bill


Bill...you can go to most Auto Zones or check out J&P Cycles.  They sell the LED bulbs in the same number scheme as the regular bulbs...I bought two red LEDs for the rear...I think they were 1156 style, and they worked great.  Of course, for the red bulbs, I had already installed the kuryakyn brake/run/turn module so that I have more light to the rear.  If you can't find them and they play ignorant when you call, let me know.  I can probably find my receipts and give you a part number.

One thing, however, to add on.  I bought amber bulbs for the front end, and they did not work properly.  I'm not sure yet if the wiring is screwy, or if I goofed when I ordered them, but one worked like a two-element bulb, while the other worked like a 1-element bulb.  Needless to say, I couldn't leave it like that.  I still have to work out a solution to this part, but the rears work great, and can be seen from WAY far away.  They are about blinding once you get about 50 feet back, but don't look that bright from nearby.  Kinda cool.

Doc...Thanks!

A couple of days ago I ordered the Panacea Laydown smoked tailight...but did not do the rear turn signals yet.  I could not tell how it would work with the existing smoked lens.

Bill... I have the complete Kuryakyn Panecea set up ( smoked lay down tail light and smoked LED turn signals) and they work great :)   For the turn signals I purchased the Kuryakyn LED inserts and used the SEEG smoked lenses and they work fine.

Just added the front LED turn signals from Kuryakyn, part #4825...I already have the smoked laydown Panacea tailight and am looking for the Deuce Style Smoked Inserts, Kuryakyn Part # 4949.
